{"product_id":"she-made-me-laugh-stephanie-emmons-9781640601840","title":"She Made Me Laugh: Mother Teresa and the Call to Holiness","description":"Most people likely know of Mother Teresa's great faithfulness to God's call as she started her ministry to the poor in Calcutta. But at the time, few knew that she had lost all sense of God's presence, love, and sometimes the assurance that God existed at all. Astonishingly, for 50 years, the saint's life was spent in what she called \"the darkness.\" Yet, somehow Mother Teresa managed to get up every morning and say yes to God. And not only did she say yes, she came to accept the darkness, while also allowing a sense of humor and even playfulness to shine through. This book is a memoir of the author's direct experiences with Mother Teresa during a trip to Calcutta in 1996 when she discovered that sense of humor first hand. It is also an extended reflection on the beloved saint's \"dark night of the soul\" and what that might mean for spiritual seekers today. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephanie Emmons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1640601848\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781640601840\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Paraclete Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.60d","brand":"Stephanie Emmons","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44050537939199,"sku":"9781640601840","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_811eca71-1fb1-463c-92c1-efe0eea16d1a.jpg?v=1685007821","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/she-made-me-laugh-stephanie-emmons-9781640601840","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
