Rating: - Love In The Heart Of The Church
"I Believe In Love" . . . reading the writings and words and thoughts of Saint Therese herself is one of the most spiritually transforming experiences anyone can have . . . after reading her and letting her speak to our hearts and souls, a book like this one offered as a "life retreat and guide" by Pere Jean du Coeur de Jeses D'Elbee helps us to allow her "little way" to find spiritual resonance in our lives.

It is more than worth the price and trouble to find it.

In this Jubilee Year with its emphasis on the Eucharist, the chapter on that topic can stand alone and is worth the price of the book in itself. And I may add that for the anxious or depressed- this ... Read More
Rating: - teaches what true happiness really means
This book helped me to take my spiritual life to a whole new level. It allowed me to leave behind all feelings of guilt or inadequacy, and enter into a relationship with God that helped me to attain true joy.
