Muto, Susan: Twelve Little Ways To Transform Your Heart

St. Therese of Lisieux's "œLittle Way"� has been embraced by people of all walks of life. In Twelve Little Ways to Transform Your Heart, author Susan Muto explores twelve facets of St. Therese's simple spiritual path as a way to personal holiness and the secret to being a powerful witness to Christ in the world today.

Though she lived only to the age of twenty-four and spent almost her entire life at her family home and in the Carmelite convent, St. Therese of Lisieux displayed a love for Jesus and a passion for his gospel that have made her the patroness of the missions. The "œLittle Flower's"� humility and childlike trust are still powerful examples of how ordinary people can grow closer to Jesus and respond to Pope Francis's call for a new evangelization.

The calls to holiness and to witness to Christ can seem daunting, but as Susan Muto-renowned speaker and expert on Carmelite spirituality-explains, Therese shows us that they are neither difficult nor dramatic. The Little Way can be lived by any of us, even with what Therese called the "œministry of the smile."�
