St. Benedict and St. Thérèse by Dwight Longenecker Pdf

St. Benedict and St. Therese of Lisieux stand as two of the monumental figures in the history of the Western Church. Their impact on Christian thought cannot be overestimated, yet never before have they been viewed as spiritual father and daughter. From his "little rule" to her "little way," these two great saints teach us to find ourselves in the ordinary. The path of holiness lies open for every Christian, for the course leads through the real demands and details of everyday life. As both Benedict and Therese understood so well, the family, the school, the parish, and the workplace are all schools of the Lord's service. By using St. Therese's writings to illustrate St. Benedict's Rule, Dwight Longenecker shows how holiness is always the result of a daily reliance on Gods' grace. - Back cover.

Listen My Son by Dwight Longenecker Pdf

Listen, My Son (the opening words of Benedict's Rule) breaks the Rule into small daily portions and provides commentary specifically geared to help men be better husbands and parents. Without underestimating the emotional, spiritual, and physical demands of fatherhood, Longenecker also holds up the joys of developing a strong bond with God—one that nurtures the individual man, and that provides him with the ability to grow himself and his family in faithfulness, service, and love.

St. Therese and the Faithful by Benedict Williamson Pdf

St. Therese and the faithful is a practical manual which makes this great saint and doctor's little way applicable to those living in the world.

The Way of Trust and Love by Jacques Philippe Pdf

St. Thérèse of Lisieux sought a new way to Heaven: “a little way that is quite straight, quite short: a completely new little way.” Blessed with personal limitations that might have discouraged another, Thérèse believed God would not have given her a desire for holiness if He did not intend for her to achieve it. She learned to humbly accept herself as she was and trust completely in God’s love. First given as a retreat by renowned author Father Jacques Philippe, The Way of Trust and Love navigates excerpts of St. Thérèse’s writings phrase by phrase, extracting powerful, resonating insights. To Thérèse, the journey seemed “little” as she traveled it. A hundred and fifteen years after her death, the message of the young saint and Doctor of the Church has traveled around the world inspiring millions. With this newly translated study of her spirituality, many today will rediscover—or find for the first time—the relevance of “the little way,” in all seasons of life. Fr. Jacques Philippe is well-known for his books on prayer and spirituality. A member of the Community of the Beatitudes, he regularly preaches retreats in France and abroad. He also spends much of his time giving spiritual direction and working for the development of the Community in Asia and Oceania where he travels frequently. View Fr.

St. Thérèse of Lisieux by D. C. Margaret Pdf

St Thérèse of Lisieux is one of our best loved saints. Discalced Carmelite mystic, Doctor of the Church, popularly acclaimed as 'the Little Flower', her spirituality is at once simple and sublime - it appeals to Christians at all stages of the spiritual journey. In this classic account of St Thérèse's spiritual teaching - "the little way of spiritual childhood" - Sister Teresa Margaret, D.C. explores with us her life, her devotions, her teaching and her posthumous mission. She demonstrates how readily adaptable is this simple yet far from easy "ever-ancient, ever-new' method of going to God, by 'doing the tiniest things right and doing it for love" Sister Teresa shows us how a modern saint achieved so perfect a likeness to Christ in her own life, how the unchanging standards of our Saviour can be adapted in every way to the needs and problems of this present age - a consolation and encouragement for us all. She presents to us St Thérèse as a sure spiritual companion and guide. Here we meet St Thérèse in the light of the Gospels, in the light of the Church's teaching concerning her virtues and her universal mission, and against a background of genuine Carmelite tradition and the teaching of St John of the Cross. St Thérèse of Lisieux was canonized in 1925 by Pope Pius XI, was declared patroness of foreign missions with St Francis Xavier in 1927, and in 1944 was declared protectoress of France with St Joan of Arc by Pope Pius XII. St Thérèse was declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope John Paul II in 1997.
