NOTES

Sometimes What We Need Most Is What We Fear Most Meet twelve fascinating-at times, intimidating-Christian change agents who were unafraid to ask what God would have them do in the face of life's realities-and unafraid to go ahead and do it. Their words and actions challenged the status quo, and in so doing they showed the face of Jesus to the Church and to the world. Whether calling us to live simply in the name of Jesus, showing the way to genuine peacemaking, or exemplifying the true meaning of courage, the legacies of these blessed troublemakers continue to inspire us today… if we let them. Paul of Tarsus - Mary Magdalene - Origen of Alexandria - Francis of Assisi - Hildegard of Bingen - Thomas Cranmer - Sojourner Truth - Dorothy Day - Dietrich Bonhoeffer - Janani Luwum - Oscar Romero K.
