Description: |
Saint John Henry Newman’s life was dominated by a commitment to the truth. He listened to the voice of his conscience and followed its demands, even at the cost of career, security, reputation, friendship. One of the most prominent figures in the Church of England, when he became a Catholic in 1845, it caused public scandal. He was frequently misunderstood by many, both Catholics and non-Catholics, for the rest of his life.
He was remarkable for the breadth of his human sympathy; he was also a diligent, sympathetic pastor in a poor urban parish. After his death, countless people have been helped by his witness and writings. This biography includes some of his famous sermons taken from the archives of the Catholic Truth Society, est. 1868, such as The Second Spring, God’s Will, and The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. These works, published over 100 years ago, illustrate the range and power of this beloved Saint. |
