Entering the Castle with Teresa of Avila

Our guide for the morning will be the sixteenth-century saint and mystic Teresa of Avila. Her book The Interior Castle charts the “interior trials and spiritual sweetness” of the soul’s journey to God. Teresa teaches that the gateway to the inner life is prayer. Through a variety of prayer practices, readings, and quiet reflection, you are invited to examine your own inner path to God.
