Show Notes

Corinne Cathcart invites us to walk alongside Mother Teresa in the slums of Calcutta and discover the power of love expressed in simple acts. Through stories of courage, compassion, and perseverance—even in the midst of spiritual darkness—Corinne connects Mother Teresa’s life to Isaiah’s promise of deserts blooming with joy. As we approach Christmas, this episode challenges us to pour great love into small things and create something beautiful for God. If you would like to learn more about the four Teresas, check out this podcast episode!
