I agree 100% with Scottie. I too was shocked at some of the unbiblical statements Mother Theresa said in this book...very Alarming quotes. You find these unbiblical quotes when you read through a sea of words in this book. From reading this book, Mother Theresa obviously preached a different gospel than Jesus...though she lived an amazing life of goodness and should be praised for that (!)...it's however truly sad that she had a HUGE opportunity to talk reach Billions of people with the True Gospel of Repentance & Trust in JESUS CHRIST (like Jesus)..etc., but there is no mention of her saying anything near what Jesus Preached about in this book...in fact it's quite the opposite. There is only ONE GATE (John 10:9) & only ONE ROAD to Heaven (John 14:6; Matt. 7:13-14)...and it's NOT through Mary (1 Tim. 2:5), NOT through thousands of years of unbiblical Church Traditions, NOT through Buddha,...etc. I sincerely pray that all Roman Catholics & Linda Schaefer find the REAL Jesus before it is too late. We must all believe the Words of Jesus over our Church Doctrines, our Lukewarm Priests, and Thousands of years of Church Traditions. Let us line up everything with God's Word...and then defend God's Word. Here is a list of the Dates of Catholic Church Traditions (Heresies) when they started: http://www.SO4J.com/teachingsfalse/catholicism.html#oo Nearly every item on this above list can be shown to be CONTRARY to God’s Word. If you want the TRUTH of what Jesus taught, open your Bible & READ the Gospel of John three times, about 5 or more chapters a day. Then begin with Matthew and read through the entire New Testament including the Revelation. Follow that by reading the entire Bible, Genesis to Revelation. Always seek God in prayer in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ for understanding before reading. And you will see Roman Catholic Church Traditions do NOT line up with God's Word. Take the "Jesus Test" on SO4J.com (on top front of SO4J.com) and make sure you are Biblically & Soundly Saved. www.SO4J.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Matthew 7:13-14 Jesus says, “You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the NARROW GATE. The Highway to Hell is BROAD, and its gate is WIDE for the many who choose that way. But the Gateway to Life is VERY NARROW and the road is DIFFICULT, and only a FEW ever find it." John 10:9 Jesus says, "Yes, I am the GATE.(Not Mary) Those who come in through me will be Saved." John 3:3 Jesus says, "Truly, Truly I say unto you, Unless one is BORN AGAIN, he CANNOT see the kingdom of God." 1 Timothy 2:5 "For there is ONE God and ONE Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus."

This book is compelling! It makes you want to go out and help the hurting and poor. It's a wonderful story of a journalist, the author, who goes and walks, works and talks to Mother Teresa in her everyday environment. The goal of the book is to show the reader / viewer the sickness, pain, and death in which Mother Teresa lived and worked. She, Mother Teresa, didn't quote scripture & act pious like the Pharisees. She met people where they were. Fulling the commandment Jesus gave us, "Love one another". This she did! She is truly a Saint!

This is a wonderful book, I have read other books on Mother Teresa, however this is the book I would recommend. The photos are amazing. I finished this book days ago yet cannot help but think about it many times throughout my day. If you want a book about an amazing woman,Saint and Mother to us all or if you want a book to inspire the voluntarism in you give this book a read. It is a great book to share with your children it has many great lessons in it!
It is clear from the journalistic style of the book, that the author had no intention of preaching the gospel. She was simply telling a story through photographs and personal experiences. This book was not a biography of Mother Teresa. It was the photographer's personal encounter with the greatest humanitarian of the century. The simple way was Mother Teresa's way. The simplicity of the book makes it personal and a shared experience with the audience.
Excellent
