This companion volume to Robert Ellsberg's bestselling resource Blessed Among Us offers even more reflections on the inspiring, if also eclectic, "cloud of witnesses."

Since the early centuries, Christians have held up saintly people as models of living the Gospel of Jesus Christ. While the Church o-fficially recognizes a relatively small number of saints, the actual roster is infinitely wider. Blessed Among Us explores this eclectic "Cloud of Witnesses"--lay and religious, single and married, canonized and not, and even non-Christians whose faith and wisdom may illuminate our path. Brought to life in the evocative storytelling of Robert Ellsberg, they inspire the moral imagination and give witness to the myriad ways of holiness.

In two stories per day for over a full calendar year, Ellsberg sketches figures from biblical times to the present age and from all corners of the world--ordinary figures whose extraordinary lives point to the new age in the world to come. Blessed Among Us is drawn from Ellsberg's acclaimed column of the same name in Give Us -This Day, a monthly resource for daily prayer published by Liturgical Press.
