Thérèse of Lisieux: Wisdom's Daughter
Keith J. Egan
Discover why St. Thérèse of Lisieux is, in the words of Pope Pius X, the “greatest saint of modern times.”
When Thérèse Martin died not yet twenty five-years old in the small town of Lisieux, no one could have predicted that the Catholic Church would honor her as a saint and Doctor of the Church. Having lived a modest, secluded life, Thérèse thought of herself merely as a “grain of sand” and called herself the Little Flower. Despite her obscurity during her lifetime, however, her posthumously published autobiography, The Story of a Soul, became a modern spiritual classic and continues to touch the hearts of the faithful worldwide.
Join Carmelite spirituality expert Dr. Keith Egan in exploring the life, works, and legacy of this inspiring saint. These lectures provide invaluable insight into her life and writings. Whether new to or familiar with St. Thérèse, you will be inspired to read her words afresh, discovering layers of meaning within seemingly simple statements.
Thérèse's “Little Way” provides us with a powerful model of simplicity and commitment to God. Thérèse of Lisieux: Wisdom’s Daughter explores the wisdom that the youngest Doctor of the Church shares with anyone who seeks to lead a more deeply spiritual, committed life. Thérèse’s wisdom was a gift of God—a gift that is now available for you to cherish.
