Description

'God will write through you.' Those were almost the last private words Mother Teresa spoke to acclaimed filmmaker Christina Stevens - urging her to share her story with the world. A similar calling had come months earlier, when Mother Teresa appeared to Christina in a dream, summoning her to India to film her message to the world. Without hesitation, she gathered a film crew and boarded a plane for Calcutta. Little did she know that when destiny beckons and a Saint-to-be takes your hand, startling events and profound discoveries are around every corner. Told through the lens of Christina's colourful youth, her mind-expanding adventure may prod you to recognize your own life's calling, and that will lead you to the most powerful and transformative place in the cosmos ~ love. 'This book inspired me.' Ted Turner 'I can now add Love- The Saint and the Seeker as a contributing tome to my spiritual evolution and growth.' Chaka Khan 'I'm not one for spiritual reading, but I found Christina's journey fascinating and believable. As a matter of fact, I'm astral traveling my way to the bookstore right now.' Chevy Chase 'A truly lovely and loving expression of life from a woman who is the absolute embodiment of her word. Thank you for being you, Christina.' Rosario Dawson
