About this episode

Fr. Mark and Fr. Joseph Spence discuss the spirituality of St. Thérèse of Lisieux and her teachings on trust and love.

Fr. Mark welcomes Fr. Joseph Spence to explore the spirituality of St. Thérèse of Lisieux through his books "Living the Little Way" and "Learning How to Love with St. Thérèse." They dive into the heart of the Little Way — complete trust, surrender, and letting God be our sanctity — with beautiful stories from her life, her relationship with priests and missionaries, her love for the Eucharist, and how her “science of love” speaks powerfully to our time. A rich, encouraging conversation for anyone seeking simplicity, deeper trust in God’s mercy, and a practical path to holiness.
