Summary
This book includes correspondence (and context for understanding it) from Mother Teresa's early years in religious life and throughout her years as founder of a new religious community. This correspondence reveals Mother Teresa's struggles, doubts, and her sense of abandonment by God. These revelations can encourage and strengthen us as she reveals her abiding faith despite darkness and trials.
Missionary of Charity Father Brian Kolodiejchuk met Mother Teresa in 1977 and joined the Missionaries of Charity Fathers at the time of their foundation in 1984. He is postulator of the Cause of Beatification and Canonization of Mother Teresa of Calcutta and director of the Mother Teresa Center.

"must-read" for all who care about spiritual life
Difficult to transmit the insight of this testimony of Mother Teresa. Most profound testament. She let herself to be a "victim" to the end. And even the fact that her personal letters remained for us all was against her human wishes. Thus she underwent a profound violence in human sense in many ways. I am immensely grateful to God for this.

Multiple voices made it easy to navigate through different people mentioned in the book and the voice of Mother Teresa did well fit her stature
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
yes - she was a Nobel laureate, who did so much, unlike some other recent laureates - who killed other people instead of helping anyone

Truly a saint of our time
This audio book appears to depict an accurate account of St Saint Mother Teresa life and documents her own internal struggles. She is truly an amazing person who devoted her life to the poorest of the poor. I really enjoyed listening to this book and would like to listen to it again.
