Conversations with Therese Lisieux Book

When Thérèse of Lisieux died of tuberculosis in 1897 at the young age of 24, a mere fifty people attended her burial; 28 years later, over half a million witnessed her canonization in Rome. Today she is one of the best-loved saints of all time. How did this happen, and why? Conversations with Thérèse is a book about Thérèse of Lisieux, but it's a book with a difference. It is a series of "conversations" with this fascinating woman - a nun, a saint, a Doctor of the Church - who loved Jesus with her whole heart. Jacques Gauthier "interviews" Thérèse on her life, her faith and her "little way" to Jesus by drawing on her own letters, poetry and journals. The lively conversation that results is a masterpiece. Enter into Conversations with Thérèse and be prepared to be challenged, inspired and moved by the purity, humour, and faith of St. Thérèse of Lisieux. "I'm not really writing about my life as much as about my appreciation of God's grace at work in me."Read More
