The life of Mother Teresa left a legacy — and a religious order — that represents a life of Gospel charity and complete surrender to God.
Some people don’t like its implications. They turn out critiques like the ones I review this week for MercatorNet.
“I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money,” Mother Teresa once said. “No, I wouldn’t touch a leper for a thousand pounds; yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.”
Some people don’t get that. But they’re trying to.
