This article explores a profound and wonder-filled
mystery. This is the story of how we—lawyers convening in one
of the world’s mega-centers of power—came to study the Science of
Divine Love at the school of Marie Françoise Thérèse Martin.
Part I of this article discusses the life and legacy of St. Thérèse
of Lisieux. Parts II and III analyzes the nature of the legal
profession and the effect St. Thérèse’s “transformative vision” can
have on the everyday practice of law. Finally, the article’s
conclusion urges all laywers to follow St. Thérèse’s message and to
live a life of love.
