Description: This week, Dan, Melissa and Dr. Anthony Lilles dive into the oblation of St. Therese of Lisieux and take a closer look at her desires to serve the Lord.
Topics/Questions covered in the show:
How can St. Therese "save souls on earth by liberating those suffering in purgatory"? How can God be her holiness? St. Therese recognizes her powerlessness to be holy and relies on God to attain the heights of holiness. The measure of our spiritual progress and our holiness is love of God and love of neighbor. St. Therese refers to Jesus as her spouse. How can men relate to this idea of being the spouse of Christ?Resources:
