Summary:"God's saints come in a wide variety of personalities, with purity and dubious intent liberally mixed into all of them. They have many levels of faith or doubt, along with obvious or deceptively disguised sanctity. All saints are flawed people; there is none totally righteous, no, not one, as the apostle Paul insisted. Nonetheless, all daughters and sons of God are saints. And because everyone is a child of God, we are all saints, even if we reject our God-given saintly status. The author has known many hundreds of church members very well through more than fifty years of parish ministry, plus several thousands of others not so well. The Communion of Saints: A Pastor's Potpourri of Parishioners is a collection of short biographical sketches of many admired church people as seen through the eyes of a long-of-tooth parson."--back cover.
