The Dialogue - Catherine of Siena

The Dialogue of Saint Catherine of Siena, written in a time of political turmoil and spiritual persecution, still speaks to Christians today.

The Eternal Father speaks to "a human soul" — Saint Catherine — and describes the substance of the spiritual life. Through allegories, metaphors, and analogies, he guides Saint Catherine — and the reader — toward a deeper understanding of his divine providence, what is needed to live a holy life, and the importance of prayer and obedience.

In this important work, God speaks to Saint Catherine and to us, offering the message that he has created us for love and that “love transforms one into what one loves.”

Includes an introduction by Elizabeth Scalia.
