Saint Anthony of Padua – A Voice from Heaven – Franciscan expert Anton Rotzetter presents the story of one of the world’s most beloved saints, Anthony of Padua, focusing on Anthony’s great ministry and the legends surrounding him. Not a biography in traditional sense, the book begins with what Rotzetter sees as the turning point in the quiet, prayerful monk’s life when in the fall of 1222 the saint enters the public eye during his first preaching appearance and astounds everyone! Rotzetter’s work reflects the personal bond he feels with Anthony, and he weaves these personal impressions with the saint’s life and deeds. Rotzetter writes in a style almost conversational at times, drawing parallels to Bible verses from the legends.
