About my blog 

 “Cleave to reading spiritual writings. It will lead you to that wonderful change which took place in so many saints. Through these works, we receive great and holy enlightenment. Through them, we learn of the path to salvation; we learn what kind of temptations await us on this path, and about the means by which we may be delivered from them.” - Archbishop Platon of Kostroma.

 This blog is meant to help your faith journey by telling the stories of saints throughout history. Most Christians in America have very little knowledge of church history, which is a shame because of all the knowledge and lessons that can be learned from knowing it. I hadn’t known about all these saints until recently when I started to learn more about them; as I kept studying, I realized just how much wisdom there was to be found. I knew I had to tell others about this, and a blog is a great way to do it. Nothing that we’ll encounter in our spiritual life is a new phenomenon; Christians have been dealing with these things since the beginning, and we can learn from their example and use it to help in our own walk with Christ.
