Description: This week Dan, Melissa and Dr. Anthony Lilles prepare us to face hardships in this short life n order to sincerely follow the steps of our crucified Lord and enjoy the fruits he merited for us in heaven.
Topics/Questions covered in the show:
St. Therese wants to suffer for Jesus, but it seems like she is waiting until she enters Carmel. Why? St. Therese expresses her desire to go through trials here on earth and have a "beautiful crown" in heaven. St. Therese mentions that "life passes quickly". How can we make the most of our time here on earth? What does our Lord expect from us while we are living in the world? Humanity constantly searches for joy that does not pass away. This life and all of its joys are passing. The joy of heaven is eternal. How can we save souls through our suffering?Resources:
