Stories about Saint John Paul II
Wlodzimierz Redzioch
Ignatius Press, 2015
208 pages, hardcover $19.95
Subtitled Told by His Close Friends and Collaborators, this book tells stories of John Paul II’s courageous witness in Communist Poland and his important participation in the Second Vatican Council, continuing through his election to the papacy and the challenges of his pontificate, and ending with the sufferings of his final years.
Through these previously unpublished stories and anecdotes, a composite portrait emerges of a prayerful and thoughtful man with heroic faith, hope and charity. Capable of discussing, listening and delegating, John Paul was also a decisive leader who unabashedly defended the Catholic faith.
