Front Cover
Orbis Books, 2000 - Biography & Autobiography - 180 pages
Faithful Dissenters tells the stories of people who took risky stands and sometimes paid heavily. Yet the benefits of their dissent have unquestionably enriched the church and all of us. They include:
-- Catherine of Sienna
-- Thomas Aquinas
-- Matteo Ricci
-- Hildegard of Bingen
-- John Henry Newman
-- Mary Ward
-- Yves Congar

All of these men and women had one thing in common: they loved the church. And the church they helped change now holds all of them in high esteem.
