Pints With Aquinas

CHAPTER

Divine Mercy and the Heart of Sainthood

This chapter delves into the themes of divine mercy and the nature of sin and repentance, emphasizing the assurance of salvation through God's boundless love rather than personal merit. Highlighting the insights of Therese of Lisieux, it contrasts the common misconceptions of her spirituality with her true message of humility, trust, and transformative grace. The discussion further critiques the flawed portrayals of Therese in media, urging a deeper understanding of her teachings on mercy and the importance of retaining faith amid spiritual struggles.
