Angels and saints. Catholics tend to think of them as different from the rest of us. They're cast in plaster or simpering on a holy card, performing miracles with superhero strength, or playing a harp in highest heaven.

Yet they are very near to us in every way. In this lively audiobook, Scott Hahn dispels the false notions and urban legends people use to keep the saints at a safe distance.

These messages were recorded by Anne, a lay apostle, in August and September 2004. They contain messages from Jesus and Mary, Our Blessed Mother. Jesus and Mary tell us all about angels.

The advice given to us in this volume can truly change the way we live each day with a new awareness of the beautiful heavenly beings that surround us and help us with everything.
