Why this book? It grew out of a twofold interest: to introduce you to some truly spectacular women in the Churcha few already recognized as saints, a few under consideration for sainthood, and a few who arent but are surely holy nonethelessand to offer a kind of living workbook on the virtues. Growth and mastery in the virtues is a long and exacting process, so I didnt feel the need to cover every possible virtue, just a few that are important in the lives of women today. Did you bond with one of the women? Blessed Benedetta and I have formed a real bondit's like she came and found me. She is going to be a really important saint for those who work in the medical field, single women, working women, and all those who suffer degenerative illnesses. It's like she's gathering up her army of evangelists on earth. I have so many miraculous Benedetta stories already, I'm starting to collect them. What do you want readers to know about the book? I love that each chapter offers prompts for praying for each virtue that is highlighted. Praying with God's word is one of the most important things we can do each day. It's truly living, active and transformative. If you don't believe me, try it! The women in these pages have become good friends to me. I feel like they have come and made themselves at home in my house! And my heart.
