The Whole World Will Love Me (eBook)
By St. Thérèse of Lisieux · Published by TAN Books
Overview
Story of a Soul draws together every thread of St. Thérèse’s life into one intimate, flowing, and deeply compelling narrative. With striking simplicity and sincerity, the Little Flower reveals the hidden formation of a saint—from the tenderness of her earliest years to the quiet heroism of her final days.
Within these pages, readers encounter the powerful influence of her holy family: a mother radiant in virtue, a father marked by nobility and deep faith, and sisters whose generosity led each of them to religious life. These foundations shaped Thérèse’s own path, culminating in her bold entrance into Carmel at just fifteen years old.
Her story unfolds not through dramatic outward events, but through an interior journey of trust, sacrifice, and total abandonment to God. From childhood innocence to mature spiritual insight, and finally to her death at the age of twenty-four, every moment is ordered toward a singular end: union with God through love.
What emerges is not merely a biography, but a living testimony—an invitation to discover that sanctity is formed in the ordinary, hidden, and faithful offering of one’s life.
