Publisher's summary

Mother Teresa: The Saint of Calcutta

Mother Teresa is one of the most celebrated figures from the last millennium. For more than 50 years, she did things that announced her to the entire world. A polite and humble figure, loved and criticized in equal measures, this audiobook celebrates the life of a little nun from Albania who taught the whole world a lesson.

This is what you will learn inside:

The audiobook is divided into four chapters, each dealing with a tenet that concerns the life of Mother Teresa of Calcutta. In 2015, the Catholic Church canonized her, thus elevating her to the highest point all Catholics want, that of a saint. This is despite the considerable criticism levelled against her.

The audiobook also looks at the challenges Teresa faced when she started a charity congregation with just five rupees and a sari. There are the lessons she taught the world through her anecdotes and sayings as well.

The audiobook takes a deep look at the criticism levelled against her, offers a profile of her critics and the response to the criticism. While the media will look at the sensational headlines about this topic, the book's approach is deep and puts the whole issue into perspective.

A Life of Love....

It is probably impossible to completely emulate Mother Teresa. She was so selfless in her interactions with the poorest of the poor. And yet by listening to this book you may be convinced to do something big or small to help the world.

Amazing women

To say that she lived a full life is an understatement. It's more like she lived several lives to the fullest. I found it inspiring and comforting that she, a most religious and blessed mother of so many..the poorest of the poor, had for so long experienced a faith crisis. A quite inspiring listening to it.

Thanks for the author

I learned so much from this book. Thank you Mother Teresa for everything you have done from helping the poor, the children , the sick , and the unloved . You are a saint

good to listen

I admired Mother Teresa, and held her in highest esteem, but I knew very little about her. The book was interesting, informative, and held my attention. I recommend it to anyone who would like to learn more about this amazing woman. She showed what one person could do if totally devoted to God and service to mankind.
