Vol. 10, No. 9

May 2, 2025

On the cover: An illustration of St. Francis of Assisi from the new book “Saints, Angels & Demons.” Everybody knows Easter is an important Christian feast, but what does it have to do with us? For the saints, Christ’s death and resurrection was something that touched their very lives, gave meaning to their existence, and could be experienced in this life. On Page 10, author Gary Jansen looks at five holy men and women who lived as true “witnesses of the Resurrection.”
