Through her houses of hospitality, the practice of the works of mercy, and her prophetic work for peace and justice, she offered a radical witness to the gospel in action. But it was as much in her everyday life as in her public activities that she expressed her spirituality and found her path to holiness. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This anthology explores the key themes that underlay her spirituality, beginning with the call to see Christ in the poor. Day's spirituality was deeply influenced by the \"Little Way\" of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, which showed the path to holiness in the daily exercise of patience, charity, and forgiveness. Dorothy extended this principle to the social dimension, the significance of the little protests we make or fail to make. She believed that each act of love, each witness for peace, increases the balance of love and peace in the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUS$24.00\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRELIGION \/ Spirituality\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRELIGION \/ Christianity \/ Catholic\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBIOGRAPHY \u0026amp; AUTOBIOGRAPHY \/ Religious\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMODERN SPIRITUAL MASTERS SERIES\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDOROTHY DAY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpiritual Writings\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSelected with an Introduction by Robert Ellsberg\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN: 978-1-62698-583-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eORBIS LOGO\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePhoto: Milwaukee Sentinel. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCover design: Michael Calvente\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobert Ellsberg, \u003c\/b\u003epublisher of Orbis Books, worked with Dorothy Day for the last five years of her life, including two years as managing editor of \u003ci\u003eThe Catholic Worker. \u003c\/i\u003eHe has edited five previous volumes of her writings, including \u003ci\u003eSelected Writings \u003c\/i\u003e(Christopher Award Winner), her diaries (\u003ci\u003eThe Duty of Delight\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003eand her selected letters (\u003ci\u003eAll the Way to Heaven\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003ci\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 264\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 8.25 x 5.38 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 20, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44484360568883,"sku":"9781626985834","price":64.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/2191\/6467\/files\/FOKUixfaiJ9781626985834.webp?v=1783048446","url":"https:\/\/thereadinghousebookcompany.com\/products\/dorothy-day-spiritual-writings-paperback","provider":"The Reading House Book Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
