Introduction to the Life of St. Teresa Margaret (Anna Maria Redi) of the Sacred Heart, Part 2
We continue the introduction to the life of St. Teresa Margaret of the Sacred Heart by addressing the challenges she faced once she left civilian life and entered the convent in Carmel. What were the lessons she still needed to learn? How may we profit from them as well? Additionally, what can we learn from her ardent devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus? Then, we approach the conversation of her mystical life and the famous mystical experience she had of “God is Love!” What were the effects of this experience? Finally, we touch on the relationship of St. Teresa Margaret of the Sacred Heart to Pope Benedict XVI’s recent encyclical letter: “Deus Caritas Est.”
