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.

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. Benedict Williamson shows, in this wonderful work, that the spirituality of St. Therese is not just for religious, just as sainthood is not for religious only, but is for everyone. The home, just as truly as the convent, can be the school of sanctity, and St. Therese leads the way. She was declared the greatest saint of modern times, because she traced out the path to sanctity that knows not the difference between religious, clergy or laity, and is especially suited to the laity who must live int he world.

Accept the invitation to journey through Lent with Jesus Christ and one of the "greatest saints of modern times," St. Therese of Lisieux. Pope John Paul II declared her a Doctor of the Church for her spiritual wisdom inspired by the Gospel. She calls us to "increase the spirit of faith" in our hearts and become what God "wills us to be." Prepare for your journey with an Invitation from St. Therese, a short biography of Saint Therese, an Overview of the Carmelite Order, and a section on Saint Therese and Prayer. The journey begins each day of Lent, weekdays and Sundays, with: a Gospel Reading, a selection from the Writings of St. Therese, a Reflection, and a Prayer. St. Therese of Lisieux is called the saint of "the Little Way" but her spirituality is much greater and deeper, for it is a path to our Lord God Jesus Christ--the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Let the beautiful relationship that she had with Jesus inspire your Lenten journey.

During the year 2000, the relics of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (1874–1897) toured throughout the United States—at once confirming and stimulating an extraordinary resurgence of interest in the life and work of a Carmelite nun known as the "Little Flower." In Thérèse of Lisieux: Transformation in Christ, Abbot Thomas Keating reflects on what St Thérèse understood the teaching of Jesus Christ to be. Thérèse had an extraordinary penetration into the heart of Jesus’ teaching, something she developed into a program for daily life. Although she was only twenty-four years old when she died, Thérèse had an extraordinary spiritual maturity. Father Keating writes about the teachings of Jesus in the parables and then shows what extraordinary insight Thérèse had into those enigmatic sayings. According to Father Keating, St. Thérèse tried to live the Gospel precept, "To love one another as I have loved you!" on a daily basis. She believed it was the best program to propose to people because anybody could do it and because the Kingdom of God was, and is, in everyday life and in what we, as individuals, do with it. As Father Keating shows, St. Thérèse’s teaching continues to reveal to us that if we only build up instead of tear down others and fully and lovingly trust that Christ is with us until the end of time we will be transformed.
