What qualities make a provincial French nun who died at the age of twenty-four one of the world's most fascinating women and perhaps the best-loved Roman Catholic saint? In this eloquent appreciation, Jean Guitton captures the special essence of Thérèse of Lisieux in much the same way as a gifted photographer captures his subject. The result is an intimate portrait of the intellect, charm, and spiritual vision of the saint widely known as the 'Little Flower'. Ranking Thérèse as one of the 'Lights of the World', alongside Saints Paul, Augustine, Francis of Assisi, and Joan of Arc, Guitton examines her faith and its special relevance for the modern world. He illuminates seven salient themes in her writing: love of the world as it is; the notion of authenticity; divine love as inimical to human suffering; the afterlife as a continuation of this life; purgatory as a place to love; human life as an effortless striving; and the vision of eternity in the present moment. These seven pivotal concepts, for all their childlike simplicity, constitute a profound theological vision. Now, over one hundred years after her death, Saint Thérèse of Lisieux has been proclaimed a Doctor of the Church. Guitton's lyrical celebration of Thérèse originality reveals the beloved saint as both oracle and guide for our time and all time.

The genius of St. Thérèse's spirituality is the originality of her approach to God in confidence and love. Perhaps nowhere is this more evident than in her Act of Oblation to Merciful Love. At a time when some were offering themselves as victims to God's justice in reparation, Thérèse chose instead to offer herself to God's mercy, to enable that infinite love welling up in God to overflow into her and extend that love, not justice, to others. More Information This little book treats of a love story that began on January 4, 1873, the day of Thérèse's baptism. On that day God began to court the soul of this little girl who would remain just that a little girl. She would also learn to correspond with her baptismal grace, thus maturing into a strong-willed woman and ultimately into the faithful bride of her divine Spouse. Her formal relationship with Christ and her new insertion into his life began fittingly on Christmas. Also fittingly, her relationship with him on earth ended on Calvary. Tracing St. Thérèse of Lisieux's life, we discover that she begins with the life of grace, going from child of God to child in the Son. She then advances to a theological existence; from theological existence to union; and from union to its culmination in espousals with Christ: the ordinary terminus of the spiritual life to which everyone is called. Having arrived at such union with the divine Spouse, Thérèse was next inducted into the victimhood of Christ. The author then examines the relation between the type of victimhood St. Thérèse experienced and the type of sin she was expiating: atheism.

Over a century ago, there lived a Carmelite nun, Thérèse of Lisieux. Although she was young and seemed to have no authority, she taught “a Little Way very straight and short” which would lead people to perfection. Others had declared that sanctity was hard to attain, but she said that it was easy. Thérèse maintained that in order to become holy, it was not necessary to engage in manifold practices, to perform rigorous penances, or to receive extraordinary graces. What was needed was simply that we acknowledge our “nothingness” and approach God with love and confidence. “Sanctity,” she proclaimed, “is an interior disposition which makes us humble and little in God’s arms, conscious of our weakness and trusting even to audacity in the goodness of our Father.” Thérèse did not reveal new truths, nor did she teach new means for attaining perfection. Her doctrine was not a revelation of a new kind of sanctity, but a new way of revealing sanctity to us. What she teaches flows from the knowledge of God as He is revealed in the Gospel; she invites us to return to evangelical simplicity. The Church has endorsed her doctrine at the highest level: in 1999, Pope John Paul II declared her a Doctor of the Church. In the Complete Spiritual Doctrine of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, he presents her teachings in their original beauty, simplicity, and practicality. According to the judgment of the Carmelite nuns of Lisieux, this work “represents the pure doctrine of Thérèse—without deviation.” Since this book first appeared in French in 1958 and in English in 1961, it has established itself as a classic. Although many fine studies on St. Thérèse have appeared in more recent years, the Complete Spiritual Doctrine of St. Thérèse of Lisieux is still an indispensable guide to the Little Way.
