Reviews

Certain Sainthood is a compelling account of religious, institutional, and theological history. Donald S. Prudlo tells his tale well and tethers it to the cult of the saints and the careful negotiation that takes place between local faith communities and the Pastor of the universal church. -Mark F. Johnson, Marquette University
