The path of trust and love

In a weak and wounded world like ours, Therese of Lisieux – proclaimed a Doctor of the Church in 1997 by Pope John Paul II – proposes to us a “completely new little path”, accessible to every Christian who feels called to live the Gospel in depth. Father Jacques Philippe explains what this “path of trust and love” consists of, which Therese discovered and lived, and then taught to the novices she cared for at the Carmel of Lisieux. With numerous examples from the life of this saint, the author shows how certain insights that Therese received remain extremely valuable for us today, especially in times of difficulty and trial. He also reveals how Teresian trust can be fruitfully experienced in all areas of our lives.
