“Book Descriptions: "Many think it is practically impossible to be a saint—or at least extremely difficult. We offer our readers in this booklet many easy but infallible means of reaching a high degree of sanctity.” With these encouraging words Fr. Paul O’Sullivan begins An Easy Way to Become a Saint—a very optimistic book which shows how an “ordinary” Catholic can become a great saint without doing anything extraordinary—just by using the many opportunities for holiness that to most people lie hidden in each day.
The “secret” is to love God—since one act of love is worth a thousand acts of any other virtue. Fr. O’Sullivan gives us the keys to obtaining love for God—even if we feel cold and dry toward Him now. He shows that every act of love of God in this world is of priceless value and will have an eternal reward. Fr. O’Sullivan points out that each day most of us overlook many rich opportunities to increase this love and make great strides in holiness; he shows us how to capture these opportunities and use them to please God and to gain immense rewards for eternity.
An Easy Way to Become a Saint is a book of simple, practical steps that—if we follow them—are certain to make us Saints. And it is written with an assurance of the success of these methods that is totally convincing and infectious. Fr. O’Sullivan’s readers simply cannot come away from his books without being convinced he is right. The immense popularity of all his books rests in this very quality—that we simply cannot read him without imbibing his holy assurance and complete confidence in the truth of what he is saying.” DRIVE
