Come Be My Light

Come Be My Light compiles the private letters and reflections of Mother Teresa, offering an intimate look at her spiritual life and the struggles she endured while serving the poorest of the poor.

The book reveals a tension between her deep outward charity and an inner sense of spiritual darkness and longing, often called her 'dark night of the soul.

' Edited by Brian Kolodiejchuk, the volume provides historical context and commentary that illuminate her theological perspective and steadfast vocation.

Readers gain insight into the human side of sainthood and the perseverance required for lifelong ministry to marginalized people.

The collection has been influential in showing how doubt and suffering can coexist with holiness and profound service.
