![The Builders - 12 daring Christians from the Middle Ages](http://clccanada.com/cdn/shop/products/9782918495185_{width}x.jpg?v=1588792064)
Ecclesia was born at Pentecost in the year 30, almost 2000 years ago. In all its generations it has known countless heroes. Some anonymous, others extremely famous. They lived at very different times, in varied social and economic contexts. Each of them sought, as best they could, to hold high the standard of faith and to share their convictions with their contemporaries.
The stories in this second volume take place in the Middle Ages, between 600 and 1400. They tell us about a Church which is being built, which deepens its reflection and confronts civil power. The best and the worst coexist there.
Discover, through the 12 characters presented in this work (Gregory the Great, Boniface, Charlemagne, Constantine and Methodius, Vladimir, Anselm of Canterbury, Bernard of Clairvaux, Francis of Assisi, Thomas Aquinas, Catherine of Siena, John Wycliffe , Jean Hus) the dynamism and richness of the Christian faith in this little-known period.
The historical accounts in this book are supplemented by short thematic explanations, to allow readers of all ages to better understand this pivotal period in the history of Ecclesia.
