Chapter 6: Meeting Christ in Interior Trials

This chapter explores meeting Christ in interior trials like spiritual dryness, boredom, yearning for God, remorse, and despair. St. Catherine of Genoa endured intense mystical suffering, teaching that love accepts annihilation in God. Saints show that even in aridity or scruples, trust in God’s mercy transforms pain into union with Christ.
