Out of the Mouth of Babes: A Family’s Ultimate Challenge REVIVED is a fictional story about a couple that met in high school and became sweethearts. They were a very strong-willed, compassionate couple that came from families with extremely strong, moral backgrounds. Their families weren’t by any means rich in substance; however, they were rich with love, joy, peace, and all the things that mattered in life. After dating for a few years, they made a mutual decision to get married and through their union, they were blessed with four awesome children. They weren’t any different than the average children their age. All of them had their own unique personalities. One of the children was totally an exception to the rule, she was truly a babe. A babe is described as a very young child or even a native couple. But this couple was certain this child had a sense of “being here before.” She truly was wise beyond her years and was truly in a class all by herself. She was more advanced than her peers. How many times as adults have, we ignored a child because we classified them as a talker or presumed whatever they had on their minds was unimportant or silly? Or perhaps we were too busy doing our own thing to take a few minutes to listen. Regardless of our age, race, creed, or color, we were all created equal. Children shouldn’t be considered insufficient, little mouth pieces because they have lots of things on their minds. When these children spoke, their parents paid close attention to every word that proceeded out of their mouths. However, they were flabbergasted to hear such wisdom and knowledge flowing out of the mouth of this little babe. She was extremely outspoken, bold, and quite a visionary as you will soon see.

We often look for much in life, but it all boils down to one thing--peace, or as we know it in the Western word, happiness. All of our adult lives we search for this happiness, which seems to elude us, only prominent in our childhood. The link to peace and childhood is assumed to be an obvious one, spurred on by lack of responsibility and free schedules. Perhaps. Or perhaps it is the simple fact that nothing is more honest than a child with a curiosity for the world around them. Out the mouth of babes often come gems.

Regine Pernoud, the highly acclaimed French medieval historian, and author of best-selling titles on Joan of Arc and Hildegard of Bingen, as well as the book Those Terrible Middle Ages, presents an enlighteneing biography of one of France's most revered saints, and man whose impact on France, and Europe, continues to this days. Martin of Tours lived in the 4th century, at that great turning point in history when the Roman Empire fell and the Church took charge in the West. He left a successful career in the military life to become a monk, and later a Bishop who traveled extensively, evangelizing the countryside and creatiung that particular sort of community life in a village that is now called a "parish." More than four hundred towns and some four thousand parished in France are named after St. Martin. The term "chapel" is derived from the actual church where pilgrims venerate Martin's "cape" or cloak. Martin of Tours was a servant of the common man, as well as the nobility, and a very humble man who responded to the needs of his times and and opened up vast perspectives for ordinary, everyday life. Given the crisis of the Christian Faith now facing France and all of Europe, the story of this solider and great apostle and Christian evangelist is a timely one indeed.
