Discover the remarkable life of Mother Teresa…
“Who do you think I am—Mother Teresa?” It’s a phrase people still reach for, decades after her death, whenever someone pushes them to be more selfless, more giving, or more virtuous than they’re willing to be. Her name has become shorthand for a kind of goodness most of us only aspire to. But the real Mother Teresa was far more complicated and far more interesting than the saintly shorthand suggests.
Born Agnes Bojaxhiu in the last years of Ottoman rule in the Balkans, she crossed a continent and an ocean at 18 to become a nun in Ireland, then a teacher in India, before walking away from the safety of the convent walls to live among the poorest of the poor with nothing but five rupees and her faith to guide her. This is the story of how a small, stubborn woman from Skopje became one of the most recognized figures of the twentieth century, while also facing hard questions about her methods and her politics that persist to this day. This is her life; this is her story.
