Praise for Mystics & Miracles

"These wonderful stories . . . are fascinating reading. There is much to ponder here--and much to strengthen our faith."
--Catholic Parent

"Bert Ghezzi combines a wonderfully engaging style with real spiritual substance that feeds the soul."
--Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., archbishop of Denver

"Bert Ghezzi has rescued mysticism from the myth of trendy spiritualities. . . . If your prayer leaves you longing for more of God, read this book, slowly."
--Mike Aquilina, author, The How-To Book of Catholic Devotions

"Ghezzi . . . offers simple but engagingly written accounts of the lives of twenty-four saints of considerable variety. . . . Highly recommended."
--Library Journal

"Although many of the mystics examined will be familiar to many, Ghezzi does manage to offer some new and interesting insights into their lives and times."
--Booklist
