Reflections of an Uncommon Monk
Reflections of an Uncommon Monk is composed of twenty-seven spiritual reflections useful for daily living, and includes a spiritual primer which conveys basic Christian teaching on the spiritual life. This book can be read on its own or as the first book and moral and spiritual foundation of the series A Hero Is Chosen. Beginning with the second book, Mission of the Maiden, all of the stories build on the topics and themes introduced in Reflections of an Uncommon Monk. The primary aim of this series is to transmit Christian spiritual principles and to teach moral virtue in the context of a hero-saint story. Part one of Mission of the Maiden: The Hero Story of Joan of Arc includes a brief history of fourteenth and fifteenth-century medieval Europe.

Book Three, entitled God's Good Servant and the King's: The Hero Story of Thomas More, includes a brief history of fifteenth and sixteenth-century Renaissance Europe (part one) and covers Thomas More's hero-saint story (part two) focusing on his public dissent from King Henry VIII (hero-event) until his execution (hero-moment). Book Four, entitled King of Kings: The Hero Story of Jesus of Nazareth includes Old and New Testament history highlighting the first century AD Roman occupation of Judea and Jesus of Nazareth's hero-saint story from his public mission (hero-event) until his crucifixion at Calvary (hero-moment). Book Five, entitled Friar, Priest, and Martyr: The Hero Story of Maximilian Kolbe, incorporates nineteenth and twentieth-century European history highlighting Nazism and World War II; part two covers Maximilian's hero-saint story focusing on his public mission as a priest (hero-event) until his imprisonment and death at Auschwitz (hero-moment). Book Six is a short fiction novella entitled A Vocation Story Never Told: A Hero Story of Future Saints that takes place in the late twenty-second century and early twenty-third century. Book Seven, Hero Bible Verses: Meditations of a Saint, offers inspiring Bible quotes from Genesis to Revelation.

Before the watershed moment of Joan of Arc’s emergence onto the historical scene in 1429, Charles the Dauphin of France was derisively called by the English and their Burgundian allies, the “King of Bourges,” yet by his death in 1461, he had presided over the expulsion of the English from all of their continental possessions except Calais. Were it not for a teenage peasant maiden, however, history might have taken a different course… She arrived suddenly in the spring of 1429. Her dramatic appearance and short but impactful mission were legendary even in her own times, yet her star would explode in the fires of martyrdom almost as quickly as it rose. Held prisoner for the final year of her life from May 23, 1430 until May 30, 1431, she perished in flames at the stake at Rouen like a nova whose time had come. But her story lives on… Joan of Arc. Virgin, martyr, hero, saint. Take your first steps with her today!
