Fr. Leonard Andrie writes, "Isolated and exhausted, Elijah, the worn-out prophet lies by a broom tree. He is, without question, a portrait of despair. He not only wants to resign his office as prophet but says in exasperation, 'It is enough; now, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my ancestors' (1 Kings 19:4)." He asks to die because of his perceived failure. But God is not done with him yet. And, likewise, he is not done with you. Join me in the Spirit-filled conversation with St. Therese of Deephaven's Fr. Leonard Andrie.

What Belarusian Svetlana Alexievich observed, upon winning the Nobel Prize for Literature, could as easily be ascribed to the Russian novelists: "Suffering is our capital, our national resource. . .
