"description":"In 2000, Pope John Paul II canonized the great 20th century visionary of Divine Mercy, Sister Faustina Kowalska, and proclaimed the Sunday after Easter to be celebrated annually as Divine Mercy Sunday. In 2006, Pope Benedict stressed that \"Divine Mercy is not a secondary devotion, but an integral dimension of Christian faith and prayer.\" Now Pope Francis has proclaimed an extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy, which will begin on December 8, 2015. These three Popes have made it very clear that Divine Mercy is a major part of the Christian faith, and now this powerful new book reveals why.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBest-selling author Vinny Flynn continues his popular \"7 Secrets\" series with a book that brings him back to his roots. Vinny was one of the original editors of the official English edition of the actual Diary of St. Faustina, and he has written and edited a vast number of the Divine Mercy materials that are used today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough his \"secrets\" of Divine Mercy, Vinny shows how Divine Mercy is not just another worthy \"private devotion\"; it is the key devotion, the umbrella devotion over everything else. Every other devotion in the Church, every ritual, every activity, every teaching is under that umbrella of Divine Mercy. It’s all there to help us understand and enter into Divine Mercy. He shows us how everything in our lives can become more meaningful, more powerful, more life-changing once we really embrace the gift of Divine Mercy — the overflow of love from the Holy Trinity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this compelling and timely book, Flynn draws from Scripture, the teachings of the Church, and the Diary of St. Faustina to not only reveal the heart of Divine Mercy, but to offer you an invitation and a road map so that this mercy can transform your life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you're not yet convinced of the impact Divine Mercy can have on your life, if you've never heard of this message and devotion, or if you're curious to learn more about it, this book is perfect for you. It shows us all how to respond to the call of Pope Francis \"to live lives shaped by mercy\", and benefit greatly from the \"Year of Mercy\".",

From then until his death, for a span of forty-five years, Merry del Val lived essentially in the Vatican, at the service of four popes (Leo XIII, Pius X, Benedict XV, and Pius XI). Secretary of the conclave that elected Pope St. Pius X, he was appointed by him, at just thirty-eight years old, secretary of state and cardinal. For eleven years, he stood by Pius X, through all the difficult trials of his pontificate, beginning with the battle against Modernism. Under Benedict XV, he was secretary of the Holy Office, a role he continued to hold under Pius XI.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the conclaves of 1914 and 1922, he himself came close to being elected pope. A veil of mystery still surrounds his death, which occurred in Rome on February 26, 1930. His beatification process was opened on February 26, 1953, by the will of Pius XII, and he was proclaimed Servant of God.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this sweeping life story, you will see how, through it all, Cardinal del Val remained a model of virtue, leading by example in obedience, fidelity, and devotion.

Whether drafting papal documents, mediating tense religious and political situations, sending consequential encoded telegrams, or defending the teachings of the Church, he lived a life of asceticism and mysticism and steadfastly preserved the truth.",
