  • The Inspiration Series: Praying with St John of the Cross, Episode 4
    May 1 2024


    John of the Cross, the great mystic, inspires his brothers and sisters to embark on the journey of the ascent to Mount Carmel. At the top of the mountain is God, and it is fitting that we journey to the summit to encounter God. However, he proposes that we desire nothing as we journey through the narrow and rough path that leads to God. He teaches that detachment is necessary for this ascent. The union with God is the goal of our prayer life, and John of the Cross inspires us and urges us on.

  • The Inspiration Series: Praying with St Teresa of Avila, Episode 3
    Apr 24 2024

    St Teresa of Avila, the teacher of prayer, as some may call her was once a student of prayer. She had the ardent desire to pray, but she experienced difficulties in prayer during her early years. However, the Lord granted her that gift, made her advance in her life of prayer and she shared it with us. St Teresa is a great gift and inspiration to many who are on the way to perfection.

  • The Inspiration Series: Praying with Mary, Episode 2
    Apr 17 2024

    Mary is the mother of our Lord and our mother. Interestingly, Mary has a special place for the Carmelites because she is an inspiration, a mother, and a sister. This plays out strongly because we are the "Brothers of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel." Through her, the gospel of prayer and intercession continues to resound. Fr. Matt brings out clearly how contemplative disposition and acceptance of the message of the angel serve as a foundation of prayer for all Christians. She is a great inspiration and a true guide to her Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.
