This wonderful compendium of religious biographies offers a look
inside the hearts and minds of significant shapers of Anglican
spirituality over the past five centuries -- Thomas Cranmer, John
Donne, George Herbert, John Wesley, Dorothy Sayers, C. S. Lewis,
Madeleine L'Engle, and many more.
Covering twenty-nine of the most influential Anglican figures
from the sixteenth century to the present, Richard H. Schmidt
deftly chronicles their lives and work while capturing at the same
time the deep personal faith that they have managed to communicate
so powerfully to the rest of the world.
These icons of the Christian faith include not only bishops and
scholars but also housewives, poets, novelists, and teachers. Each
chapter contains a brief biographical sketch of its subject, a
selection of short, representative quotations from his or her
writings, and several questions for reflection and discussion.
Written in a personable style that brings readers into direct
contact with some of the church's most admired witnesses, "Glorious
Companions" will be valued both as a collection of insightful
biographical information and as a lasting source of
inspiration.
