From Back of Book ~
Mother Teresa shares the heart of Jesus in a way that will inspire you to love those who are forgotten and neglected - no matter where they live.
The needy and the poor, she insists, are not only those in our inner city slums and Third World countries, but those who suffer spiritually or physically in our own families and neighborhoods -- an unappreciated spouse, a neglected child, or a lonely shut-in. Mother Teresa also speaks eloquently of the scourge of AIDS, which she calls "the leprosy of the West",the tragedy of abortion, and the need to provide for abandoned and unwanted children.
Besides Mother Teresa's reflections on these topics, Loving Jesus includes a wide-ranging interview with Mother Teresa and a biographical sketch pinpointing important developments in her life. Loving Jesus is not simply the title of the book, but a way of life for Mother Teresa. It will encourage you to follow her example.
