What is Catholic spirituality? How do we name our own spirituality? How did Mother Teresa pray? In what ways does her community pray? How can this influence my prayer as a young adult?
Course Review
Mother Teresa is a saint from our lifetime, who gained global recognition for her wholehearted and free service to the poorest of the poor. Where did her secret inner fire come from? These four classes will address her vocation, her unique charism and spirituality, and her controversial spiritual darkness. Furthermore, the final class will include a screening of the only documentary film about her that she ever endorsed.
