\"\"The season of Lent invites Christians to conversion and the renewal of their relationship with the Lord. It is a time when we are called to return to the path of holiness and to rediscover the spiritual practices that nourish our soul. In this series on the Pivotal Players from Word on Fire Ministries, we present the stories of saints whose struggles and triumphs have inspired generations of Christians in their life of faith. These saints show us that there are many pathways to a deeper life with Christ the Lord and that God continues to invite everyone to make the journey.<\/p>\n
