The autobiography that was published after her death, Story of a Soul, propelled her to international renown, making her one of the most popular saints of modern times. Charming in its childlike simplicity, yet full of profound (and hard-won) wisdom, Story of a Soul found millions of readers, inspiring many to follow her \"little way\" of detachment, sacrifice, and joy. Today, the Church honors her not only as a saint, but as a patron of missionaries and a Doctor of the Church (one of the Church's greatest teachers).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLittle Lessons from St. Thérèse of Lisieux presents brief excerpts from Story of a Soul as a way of introducing those unfamiliar with Thérèse to some of the essential themes of her spirituality. The words of St. Thérèse are accompanied by the artwork of award-winning watercolorist Jeanine Crowe, a wonderful aid to prayerful meditation on the words and wisdom of St. Thérèse of Lisieux.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLittle Lessons from St. Thérèse of Lisieux includes twenty-one selections from the words of St. Thérèse, twenty artworks, and ten questions for reflection and discussion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Our Sunday Visitor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50641463345250,"sku":"T2411","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2778\/2626\/files\/81GfJQQmTXL._SY522.jpg?v=1791996506","url":"https:\/\/celticcovecatholicbookstore.org\/products\/little-lessons-from-st-therese-of-lisieux-an-introduction-to-her-words-and-wisdom","provider":"Celtic Cove Catholic Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
