"God is God and sees and knows what I cannot. I cannot fight what he wills. Although, as much as I try to trust in God and pray to trust, I still struggle with it, even now when I know my time on the earth is most likely drawing to a close." ~ St. Zelie Martin, The Lacemaker

"A story is the best way to learn about times past, and John Desjarlais spins a gripping story. I wondered how he could make such a giant of a saint real and relatable to modern readers. Succat seems to step off the pages in all his overweight, arrogant stubbornness—a boy whom God will slowly transform into a saint." ~ Bonnie Way on The Light of Tara by John Desjarlais
