This book is based on a recurring dream the author had. Along with a little inspiration found here and there, this story seemed important to share. A quote that inspired the story and was the center of the recurring dream is, Press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain, in the Lord. (1 Corinthians 15:58)
It is our hope that this book will help people listen to the Holy Spirit in their daily lives, as Susie does, so they can stand firm, pressing forward in a steadfast and unmovable way on the Lord's side.

In sixth-century Ireland, the memory of the great missionary Saint Patrick was strong, but so was the influence of the old pagan religion. There was still much work to be done to spread the Christian faith.
This book tells the story of one of the greatest saints of the Emerald Isle after Patrick, Saint Kevin, whose monastery at Glendalough was a beacon of light for eight hundred years. Saint Kevin worked miracles, communed with animals, and inspired thousands to leave everything to follow Christ. His love of God and neighbor helped root the Christian faith deep into the hearts of the Irish people.
Author Kevin McKenzie spent seven years researching the life of Saint Kevin, visiting the places where he lived and translating the thousand-year-old Latin biography of the saint into English. Using his research and travels, McKenzie has produced a lively portrait of Saint Kevin that will inspire and delight readers ages nine and up.

Over three hundred years ago, many Frenchmen came to the unknown forests along the St. Lawrence River. Most of them came in search of furs and wealth. But there were some--a handful of Jesuit missionaries--who came not to get, but to give. They wished to give the savage Indians the knowledge of God and of His love for them. One of these missionaries was Isaac Jogues, martyr and Saint. This is the story of his dangerous and difficult life among the Indian tribes in their tree-dark country--of his work of conversion, of his efforts to teach the Indians rules of health and to set them free from their superstitious belief in the power of their medicine men. This is the inspiring story of his enslavement by the Mohawks, his daring escape, and finally, his death as a martyr for the Faith.
