Discover Questions and Answers on the Divine Will

Questions and Answers on the Divine Will offers an organic, in-depth and accessible presentation of the teaching entrusted by Jesus to the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta (1865-1947) concerning the gift of living in the Divine Will.

Illuminated by Sacred Scripture and by the doctrine of the Church, particularly the Catechism of the Catholic Church, it is based primarily on Luisa's three major works: the Book of Heaven, The Virgin Mary in the Kingdom of the Divine Will and The Twenty-Four Hours of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Written by Philippe Martin, who runs Amen Fiat, with a foreword by Father Gabriel Marie Tchonang, Doctor of Theology and Moderator of the Association Française Luisa Piccarreta, this work seeks to receive in faith the full depth and boldness of these writings, while clearly situating them within the sacramental, moral and spiritual life of the Church.

A complete journey through 214 questions

Through a general introduction and fourteen major parts, the work follows the unfolding of a single design of love, whose principal stages are these:

• the creation of man to live in the Will of God;
• the loss of this Kingdom through Adam's sin;
• its reconquest in the Humanity of Christ;
• the incomparable place of the Virgin Mary;
• the mission entrusted to Luisa Piccarreta;
• how to receive and live this Gift;
• acts, rounds and reparation in the Fiat;
• the sacraments, the Church, the Passion and Christian life;
• the hope of the Kingdom and its fulfilment;
• spiritual combat and the last things.

Each question includes a brief answer, a doctrinal development, quotations from the primary sources, an articulation with the Catholic faith and an essential formula to remember. Luisa's quotations are presented in translation together with their original Italian text, allowing for a faithful and verifiable reading.

The work also includes a practical guide for beginning to live concretely in the Divine Will, a glossary, keys for interpretation, a thematic index, a study of the most difficult passages of the Book of Heaven, and a condensed version summarising the essential content of all 214 answers.

One desire alone: to know, love and live the Divine Will

This work does not claim to replace the reading of Luisa Piccarreta's writings. On the contrary, it seeks to open the door to them, illuminate their principal themes and provide readers with the necessary points of reference to explore them more deeply within the faith of the Church.

Living in the Divine Will never means being freed from the commandments, the sacraments, the Cross or obedience to the Church. It means allowing the Will of God itself to become, by grace and within a communion that always remains free, the living principle of our thoughts, words and actions.
