“Every scribe instructed in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a householder who brings forth out of his storeroom things both new and old.” Matthew 13:52 St. Thérèse of Lisieux, well acquainted with the Kingdom and famous for showering roses from Heaven, has done it again. In this little book, apt quotations from the Little Flower appear alongside beautiful old fashioned block print images of the traditional Stations of the Cross. The combination provides all little souls - from children, converts, and beginners in the spiritual life to those who have accompanied Jesus for decades – with a fresh set of meditations on Jesus’ infinite love as expressed in His Passion and Death. Each Station begins with the customary “We adore Thee, O Christ, and we bless Thee . . .” and ends with an Our Father, Hail Mary, or Glory Be. Following the fourteen Stations are St. Thérèse’s Prayer to the Holy Face, her sister Celine's painting of the Holy Face (after the Shroud of Turin), the indulgenced Prayer Before a Crucifix, and a brief explanation of indulgences. St. Thérèse described prayer as “a lifting up of the heart; a simple glance heavenwards; a cry of gratitude and of love, in the midst of trials as well as amidst joys. It is something great, something supernatural, which expands the soul and unites it with Jesus.” With this book, she invites readers to join her in a simple glance heavenwards, a cry of gratitude and love, something supernatural to unite the soul with Jesus as He proceeds step by step, Station by Station, to His Passion and Death for love of us. Walk the Way of the Cross with this Doctor of the Church as she brings forth from her Mother’s storeroom a blend of prayers both old and new. Perfect for individual devotion, group prayer, and congregational use in a parish, St. Thérèse’s little way of spiritual childhood and the Stations of the Cross blend to produce a fragrant offering of love.

Combining Scripture, quotations from St. Thérèse's Little Way, and images of the traditional fourteen Stations of the Cross, this book is perfect for personal devotion, group prayer, and parish use. The Little Flower promised to let fall a shower of roses, and in this beautifully illustrated Way of the Cross, she fulfills that promise once again

This book offers one of the most fruitful and popular practices of Christian devotion: the Way of the Cross, or Stations of the Cross, from a Carmelite perspective. The reader has the opportunity to make the Way of the Cross with five inspiring Carmelite saints: John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, Thérèse of Lisieux, Edith Stein (Teresa Benedicta of the Cross) and Elizabeth of the Trinity. In effect, the book provides five different Ways of the Cross which the reader can use for prayer. A complete set of reflections from each saint includes a brief Scripture passage, followed by a selection from the saint’s writings; footnotes identify the source document for each. These saints have a perennial message for us, helping us to mine, as St. John of the Cross described it, the deep, inexhaustible love and riches of Christ, especially demonstrated in his Passion, death and resurrection. The Way of the Cross with the Carmelite Saints is an ideal prayer resource for the Lenten season, or for personal prayer and reflection at any time throughout the year.

Now, take the wisdom and holiness of Saint Thérèse wherever you go. In 30 Days with Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, Thomas J. Craughwell packs the wisdom of Saint Thérèse and the scriptures into a 30-day devotional.

Despite the countless volumes written on St. Thérèse of Lisieux, author Suzie Andres has found something brand new which no book on the Little Flower has yet closely examined: namely Thérèse's Eucharistic miracle, at the heart of her Act of Oblation to Merciful Love. Here readers will find Thérèse's invitation to make her miracle their own.
