Editorials

From Barnes & Noble

For Mother Angelica, faith began with an upset stomach. When physicians were unable to alleviate what became a painful medical condition, she found solace and relief in making the novena. She attributes her 1943 healing to a divine miracle. Perhaps not surprisingly, she became a Catholic nun soon thereafter. Mother Angelica's Little Book of Life Lessons and Everyday Spirituality contains a lifetime's worth of wisdom, religious advice, and humorous reflections from the founder of the Eternal Word Television Network.
