When you think of saints, what image comes to mind? Maybe halos and angel wings, or maybe a football team from Louisiana. Or maybe you think of one of the most difficult stumbling blocks that Catholic belief presents for the doctrine of the communion and intercession of the saints.Why do Catholics pray to dead people? How can we expect those same people to pray for us . . . and why would they want to? What about bowing to relics and statues? And where is all this in the Bible? Doesn’t it say that we’re all saints?
These questions and others can keep other Christians at arm’s length from Catholicism—or worse, force them to conclude that Catholics have hopelessly mixed up true biblical religion with superstition and remnants of paganism.
But in The Saints Pray for You , Karlo Broussard brings the answers, backed up with the Bible. He shows how the communion of saints is not a medieval fantasy, and their intercession is not a joke the Church plays on us. Appealing to the witness of Scripture and the practice of the early Church, while neutralizing the misguided prooftexts that Protestants deploy, Karlo convincingly defends the ancient Christian belief that the saints are our family in heaven and our prayerful allies in the work of our salvation.
