Margot Schmidt And Leonard Hindsley Have Brought The Age Of Margaret Ebner To Life By Illuminating The Historical And Religious Details Of The Late Middle Ages For The Benefit Of The Modern Reader. Through The Translation And Its Introduction The Hidden Life Of A Remarkable And Holy Woman Is Made Known To The Modern World. Margaret Lived In Turbulent Times In Church History And Had To Contend With Matters Of Conscience When Caught Between The Rival Forces Of Pope John Xxii And The Emperor Louis The Bavarian. She Teaches The Centrality Of A Personal Relationship To Jesus Christ By Whose Standards All Is Judged. She Proclaims The Confidence That The Believer Must Have In Jesus Christ Who Is Truth, Goodness And Love.
