About this ebook

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “In this dramatic page-turner, Raymond Arroyo has captured the life and lessons of Mother Angelica, a woman who may well be the patron saint of CEOs.”—Lee Iacocca, The Iacocca Family Foundation, former CEO of the Chrysler Corporation

In 1981, a simple nun, using merely her entrepreneurial instincts and two hundred dollars, launched what would become the world’s largest religious media empire. In the garage of a Birmingham, Alabama, monastery, the Eternal Word Television Network grew at a staggering pace under her guidance. Mother Angelica (1923–2016) remains on the air, offering faith-filled advice, hope, and laughter to her audience through rebroadcasts of her original homilies. Raymond Arroyo, through more than five years of exclusive interviews with Mother Angelica, traces her tortuous rise to success and exposes for the first time the fierce opposition she faced, both outside and inside her church.

I learned so much about Mother Angelica in this book. It was very candid and I came to know her and love her. She had remarkable grit and was extremely funny. This book was written so well I had a hard time putting it down. This story proves what remarkable things can happen when your focus is on God.

This book is amazing!!! Both my husband and I are not readers................My husband finished before me. This woman has taught us so much with in the pages of this book.

Any money given would be so much worth it. Thank you author. Thank you Mother Angelica..
