I loved Jesus in the Night.

This is a tiny but a powerful little book attempting to explain the darkness of faith and doubt. It actually makes one's head spin at the possibility of explaining something which seems inexplicable. In many ways if the all saintly Mother Teresa went through it, then many of us experiencing the turmoil and doubts of faith and life - seem to be alright. Paul Murray the author did a good job.
Tiny, but powerful

This small volume touched me deeply. It removes Mother Teresa from the pedestal we like to put her on and makes her faith something we can relate to. A very readable examination of the "dark night" experienced by many people of faith. I recommend it to anyone who wants to better understand Mother Teresa's (and their own) faith journey.
