St. Thomas More of London
"You'll never get to heaven on feather beds!" St. Thomas More used to warn his children. And by his own life, he proved that hard work cheerfully performed will indeed help one get to heaven.
Thomas More lived in England over four hundred years ago, when the whole of Europe was going through a period of great trouble. This is the fascinating story of how the genial St. Thomas coped with the problems that came his way, of how, for England's sake, he climbed to the top of the social ladder in English public life being King Henry VIII's Chancellor. When the two men disagreed on Church teaching, St. Thomas was asked to make the ultimate sacrifice, his life.
