We all suffer…but do we suffer well? What a mystery! What does it mean to suffer well? What are the challenges and fears about suffering? What are the gifts and blessings of suffering? What did our Carmelite Saints tell us about suffering? This in person conversation with guest, Deacon Rusty Baldwin, OCDS, is really a witness of what he went through and is going through now in his suffering. He has much insight, encouragement, and hope to offer us. This conversation is beneficial to anyone who is suffering…or anyone wanting to learn how to suffer “well.” SOURCES: Books: “Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux (the Little Flower),” by Therese of Lisieux (the Little Flower); ICS Publications. “Story of a Soul: Study Edition,” by Marc Foley, OCD; ICS Publications. “St. Therese of Lisieux: Her Last Conversations,” by Therese of Lisieux (the Little Flower); ICS Publications. “Healed through Caner and Other Adversities” by James M.
