While all of us are capable of holiness, canonization is the Church’s official recognition that a particular person displayed an extraordinary degree of holiness, or devotion to God, during his or her time on Earth.

Each concise biography, from Saint Padre Pio to Saint Catherine of Siena, provides guidance for living a life of love.

Iedereen die ooit naar de Efteling is geweest, kent de "Danse Macabre". Deeltjes uit "Le carnaval des animaux" doen het goed in reclamespots. Weinig mensen weten dat die muziek uit de pen vloeide van Camille Saint-Saëns.

Een briljant man die ook karikaturen tekende, toneelstukken en gedichten schreef en publiceerde over archeologie, astronomie, botanie en filosofie. Thijs Bonger vertelt het levensverhaal van dit fenomeen.

"Un génie mystique". Ainsi parlait le Pape Paul VI de celui qui prêcha, à sa demande, sa retraite au Vatican en 1972. Maurice Zundel, ce prêtre suisse né en 1897, vit depuis sa mort en 1975, un succès grandissant. Cela s'explique par l'aspect prophétique de cet étonnant mystique qui, dès le début de ses prédications, a placé l'homme au centre et au cœur de sa spiritualité. Transcendant les frontières humaines et religieuses, celui qui fut, entre autres, le confesseur de l'abbé Pierre, rejoint chacun d'entre nous, au travers de ses homélies (éditées), de ses livres (une vingtaine), et ses conférences (retranscrites).

Let’s live a life of love. Let’s reflect on and learn from the lives of saints. The word saint comes from the Latin word sanctus, a translation of the Greek word hagios, which means “holy”.

There is so much to know about Saint Francis of Assisi that it’s impossible in this short book to tell it all. In addition, Francis touches everyone in a different way, as does Jesus.

Marco tells his story of loss, of love, of crippling and debilitating grief, and of the moments when he begins to see the light of life again. He tells of his journey from the inside, while he's still in it; a journey he is still on today, but one that is now laced with considerable light and hope.

El famoso sacerdote, vinculado ineludiblemente al amor de las parejas, hacia el siglo III a. C, enfrentó al emperador romano Claudio II, quien decidió prohibir la celebración de matrimonios para los jóvenes, porque en su opinión los solteros sin familia eran mejores soldados, ya que tenían menos ataduras. De allí el origen de su fama.

The Celebrated Crimes of Alexandre Dumas père was not written for children. The novelist has spared no language - has minced no words - to describe violent scenes of violent times. In this, the 14th of the series, Dumas, the novelist-historian, brings his storytelling skills to a famous subject: the background of one of the most famous of French lawsuits, centering around the secret abduction of Bernard de la Guiche, later count of Saint-Geran, from his mother, Suzanne de Longaunay, by the marquis de Saint-Maixant.
