How can the profound "Little Way" of St. Thérèse of Lisieux guide Christians through suffering, silence, and daily spiritual growth today? On Driving Home the Faith, host Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes Fr. Joseph Pence, member of the Franciscan Family of Mary Immaculate and professor in Rome at the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum and the Pontifical Theological Faculty Teresianum, to discuss his new book, Living the Little Way: Six Keys to the Spirituality of St. Thérèse (TAN Books).
Fr. Pence dispels common misconceptions that St. Thérèse’s spirituality is merely sentimental or cute, emphasizing instead her profound endurance of deep personal suffering from cradle to grave. He breaks down the key dimensions of her Carmelite wisdom, including her devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, her spousal love for Christ, and her understanding of God's grace as an "elevator" that lifts up human weakness. Fr. Pence also highlights how Carmelite spirituality offers modern culture a vital antidote to noise: the transformative practice of silence as the sanctuary where we meet God. Stream now to listen!
