Decades before Vatican II called for the sanctification of the laity, St. Elizabeth of the Trinity prophetically claimed that holiness is not exclusively the domain of priests and nuns but is truly for everyone. God created the human soul to be a special channel of His grace on earth and to serve as a unique image of His love. Few saints have spoken to hearts as acutely as St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, who has helped even the busiest, weariest, and most distracted of us create an inner chamber within our souls where we can rest in God’s peace and love.

When many consider modern Christianity, they rightly wonder how we have come so far from the dynamic supernatural community pictured in the Book of Acts. God did not change between then and now. What happened? Could it be that in our quest to be relevant, entertaining, hip, and appealing to modern culture, we have lowered the standard for the Christian life? We need a true revival that restores Christianity to the standard found in Acts Chapter 2.

This truth is important to ...
