Behind the scenes, she kept up a spiritual routine that enabled her to become an exemplary wife and a beloved friend.

Drawing on the history of ancient Israel, the Gospels, the writings of the early Church, and the lives of the saints, Hahn reveals the living, scriptural heart of the Church's teachings on penance, forgiveness, and reconciliation. It is a story that begins with the sin of Adam and Eve, continues in the biographies of Moses, King David, and the Apostle Peter, and reverberates in the lives of believers today. Hahn presents the Catholic and biblical perspective on sin and mercy, elucidating in clear, easily understood language the true import of Jesus' simple, yet profound promise - 'I am the door; if anyone enters by Me, he will be saved' (John 10;9)" (From the front flap of the dust jacket) 214 pages; published 2003
