Here is the Francis who prayed and danced with pagan abandon, who talked to animals, who invented the creche. Here is the Francis who inspired a revolution in art that began with Giotto and a revolution in poetry that began with Dante. Here is the Francis who tried to end the Crusades by talking to the Saracens, and who interceded with the emperor on behalf of the birds. Chesterton gives us Francis in his world-the riotously colorful world of the High Middle Ages, a world with more pageantry and romance than we have seen before or since.

This book really turned me around! Purgatory will scare the Hell out of you! (Summary by John Brandon) We can pray, give alms and have Masses said for the souls in Purgatory to shorten their and our time there. The author details eyewitness accounts and blood chilling stories from the perspective of a number of saints who went through it. Fire, burning and intense pain for various lengths of time make up the experience of Purgatory. Think of it as a temporary cleaning or purging place for those who aren’t going to Hell.
