Overview

Founded in the late 12th century, the Carmelite Order has produced some of the greatest saints and spiritual leaders in Christianity. Three Carmelites have been honored as Doctors of the Church--St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, and St. Therese of Lisieux--and their spirituality has guided the faithful through the ages. Now, you can discover how Carmelite prayer can enrich your relationship with God and your spiritual life. Your guide is Professor Egan, a Third-Order Carmelite and former president of the Carmelite Institute. Through twelve compelling lectures, you will experience the powerful methods of Carmelite prayer, both ordinary and mystical. Through the centuries, countless faithful men and women have been drawn to Carmel's wisdom about prayer. In this series, you will explore Carmel as a fountain of wisdom about prayer. Pope John Paul II affirms Carmel's place as a school of prayer, describing it as a place where prayer becomes life and life flourishes in prayer. Come pray with Carmel, where prayer delivers you into a land of wonder and fills your heart with love.
