Her true name is AgnesGonxhe Bojaxhiu.If you didn't know her name,you may not know her.Read it. ( )

very factual account of the work that she did. A poinent read ( )

When I picked this book up to read I was expecting a review of Mother Teresa's life and mission as covered by other authors. However, this book is of a quite different stripe altogether. There is a brief section retelling her beginnings as a religious worker and her life changing encounter on a train to Darjeeling, but the core of the book is on the religious experience itself. This is what was missed by previous reviewers and why they were disappointed. Joseph Langford has taken Mother Teresa's comments and revelations and combined them with insights from other Church authorities and Saints to provide a clear and concise explanation of her primary message: Jesus's statement on the cross, "I thirst". He contends that her interpretation of this statement was the "secret fire" that sustained her in her work and can be used by us as well.
I found the book to be a fountain of knowledge and a clearer explanation of religious devotion than I have ever had before. This is one ARC that will remain in my library for future review and inspiration. ( )

This book came across as tryin to "sell" christianity to me. It was easy to read and the sections about Mother Teresa's life and call were interesting. However the tone of the book was too pushy for my taste. I have to ask myself if Mother Teresa herself would have wanted her message portrayed in that manner. Overall I was rather disapointed. ( )
