How to Master 12 Essential Virtues in 12 Months
On every page Cultivating Virtue imparts the true spirit of the Catholic Faith. This book takes 12 Christian virtues—one for each month, with a reading for each day of the year—and shows you how to master each one. Featuring episodes and sayings from the lives of the Saints, it covers Perfection, Humility, Mortification, Patience, Meekness, Confidence, and Charity, among others.
Master the virtues and set out on your road to becoming a saint by learning directly from the great saints, such as St. Francis de Sales, St. Teresa of Avila, St. Vincent de Paul, St. John of the Cross, St. Jane Frances de Chantal, St. John Chrysostom, and many others.
Cultivating Virtue possesses the unique quality of touching the soul with just a few paragraphs and putting a person in tune with God’s view of our affairs. The reader can pick it up for a few moments and gain incomparable inspiration. This is one of the most moving and powerful Catholic books ever written and one that will enflame the reader with the love of God and desire for true Christian perfection.
Cultivating Virtue was formerly published by TAN Books as A Year with the Saints: A Virtue for Every Month of the Year.
The original text has been re-typeset as an attractive daily meditation. The new trim size is 5”x7”. It is bound in a Premium UltraSoft cover, with a ribbon marker and gold edges. Personalization is available.

I enjoy reading the comments from the saints on the particular virtue . . . giving me thoughts that I need to keep in mind for that virtue.
This was a nice surprise to read the saints and their thoughts, along with other saints and their thoughts that are related to one another.

Cultivating Virtue: Self-Mastery With The Saints
This book is about what I expected: easy-reading, short accounts of Saints applying and demonstrating virtue in their lives. It's informative and helpful. One drawback is the cover material. It's that faux-leather that feels good, soft, and flexible when new, but soon wears off and begins flaking after subjected to regular use.
