Fr. Leo Trese. You are Called to Greatness. Manchester, NH: Sophia Institute Press, 2022. Paperback $17.95. Ebook $9.99. Available from the publisher.
In You are Called to Greatness, Fr. Leo Trese -- a prolific and widely translated author -- provides the secret “springboard” to sanctity. He motivates readers to attain union with God in everyday things.
St. Josemaria Escriva relates that the call to become saints is for each of us regardless of our vocations:
“Sanctity is not for a privileged few. The Lord calls all of us. He expects love from all of us—from everyone, wherever they are; from everyone, whatever their state in life, their profession or job. For the daily life we live, apparently so ordinary, can be a path to sanctity: it is not necessary to abandon one’s place in the world in order to search for God…because all the paths of the earth can be the occasion for an encounter with Christ.”
Within these pages, Fr. Trese explains the path to sainthood in an engaging and conversational way. Readers will learn:
Considering real-world situations, Fr. Trese also provides advice to parents on raising their children to become saints. He further highlights how to live out justice and fortitude, natural and supernatural prudence, and physical and spiritual temperance.
Steve Wood’s review of Fr. Trese’s book Seventeen Steps to Heaven also rings true in describing this book: "This reliable, readable, and practical guide will deepen your relationship with God and lead you and your family, step by step, closer to God."
So, rise up, Child of God! This book will lead you to virtuous living and peace of heart.
