Guest Post: Finding Your Little Way -Rhymes & Riddles and Role Models for Lent

Put some lift in your Lent by solving some riddles that point to some excellent examples of “saintly” devotion.

"A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, and must empty ourselves. Give yourself fully to God. He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in His love than in your weakness." - Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

What people are saying about HOW TO READ YOUR WAY TO HEAVEN::

"Getting to heaven often requires that we rely on the wisdom of those who have gone before us. Vicki Burbach has done us a great service by providing an insightful reading plan and approach that if absorbed and followed will no doubt produce saints!" — Dan Burke, Executive director, National Catholic Register; founder, Catholic Spiritual Direction

"If you want to develop a deep knowledge of our Faith, here is a reliable book that shows you how.” —Fr. C. John McCloskey III, priest of the Prelature of Opus Dei, Research Fellow of the Faith and Reason Institute in Washington DC.

"We can read all day and read forever, and still feel as if we’re not making progress. Vicki Burbach gets us out of the rut and onto a track toward real spiritual — and cultural and intellectual — progress. This is the kind of book that can make life so much richer — by leading to many more books, and all in good order."— Mike Aquilina, award-winning author of more than forty books on Catholic history, doctrine and devotion

"Whether you're a lifelong Catholic or a skeptical inquirer, you'll find How to Read Your Way to Heaven by Vicki Burbach to be an indispensable gift for your intellectual and spiritual life. With this timeless treasure, Vicki has helped solve my "so many books and so little time" problem by providing a masterplan that's both exciting and accomplishable. By committing a portion of each day to life's most important pursuit — knowing, loving and serving God — we journey ever closer to heaven. I'm grateful to Vicki for a book that's sure to become well worn over the next five years. I can't wait to dive in! — Lisa M. Hendey, Founder of CatholicMom.com and author of The Grace of Yes
