Book excerpt: Born in 1865 in the small town of Corato, Italy, Luisa Piccarreta's life and spiritual journey is now recognized worldwide by many theologians as one of the most profound stories in the history of the Church. Beginning in her early childhood, Luisa was favored by God with many mystical gifts and experiences which permitted her to dedicate her life to God in a special way. Having been asked by Jesus in a vision at age sixteen to become a victim soul, Luisa's life took on the many sufferings and ecstasies such chosen individuals find cast upon them. Most remarkably, Luisa was confined to a bed for about 60 years where she experienced apparitions, visions, the stigmata and even bilocation experiences. However, she is most known today for her extraordinary writings, especially her works on the Divine Will. Fr. Joseph Iannuzzi, an expert on the writings of Luisa Piccarreta, now brings to us even greater clarity on these writings as Proper Catholic Perspectives of the Divine Will is a treasure of wisdom that readers will find priceless in their desire to totally embrace the theology of the Divine Will. The Cause of Beatification of the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta was opened in Rome in 1994 and is still underway at this time.
