Scandalous Mercy

Why scandalous mercy?in these pages the reader will discover unexplored aspects of the heart of god that you might think are crazy! crazy with love! you will meet mother teresa, maryam of bethlehem, a nazi criminal, a priest condemned to hell, a high ranking abortionist, a drug dealer from brazil, a furious mother-in-law, a sick child...and in the middle of all this, the most beautiful heart of christ, who is calling all his children.this beautiful selection of testimonies and "little flowers" picked from everyday life will capture the reader on two levels: first, the reader of this book will find his achy heart soothed and enriched by new ways to find hope in our difficult world today; second, he will be shocked to learn that these stories are true. they will make you laugh, cry, even tremble, but one thing is certain, they will all amaze you!reviewthis book is another extraordinary gift to the church from the pen-and even more so, from the heart and spirit, of sr. emmanuel. anyone who has read her previous books knows that she is an extraordinarily sensitive interpreter of the heart and mind of the lord with a special sensitivity to the mission of mary as she wins grace for souls in truly amazing ways..." </br>ralph martin professor of theology director of graduate programs in the new evangelization
