Episode 12 – The Story of a Soul: Faith and Generosity Equal to Every Trial
As Saint Therese of Lisieux enters Carmel, Fr. Lawrence Carney III highlights the sanctity of her father, St. Louis Martin, his deep faith, and his generous offerings to God, illustrating how these shaped both his and St. Therese’s spiritual journeys. As the Little Flower reflects on suffering and humility, she emphasizes the importance of the interior life over extraordinary phenomena, urging us to cultivate a close relationship with God through prayer and sacrificial love.
Father Lawrence Carney was ordained for the Diocese of Wichita in 2007. For five years, he walked the streets of US cities in cassock carrying a crucifix and a rosary in each hand in an effort to bring souls to the Catholic Church. In 2014, he was appointed as chaplain of the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles, where he presently serves. In 2017, he began the League of St. Martin, a pious association that prays for reverence, reparation, and reversion—the chief goals being enrollment in the Archconfraternity of the Holy Face and the Confraternity of the Holy Rosary. He is the author of the TAN book, The Secret of the Holy Face.
