Saint Teresa of Avila: Reform, Prayer, and the Wound of Divine Love
Description
We trace Teresa of Avila’s move from lukewarm routine to fierce friendship with God, and how that interior shift powered a barefoot reform that reshaped the Carmelite Order. Mysticism meets practicality as we unpack the transverberation, the Interior Castle, and a simple path to deeper prayer.
• Spain’s social pressures and Teresa’s early zeal
• Grief, vanity, and the first stirrings of reform
• A hard-won conversion sparked by the wounded Christ
• Prayer as friendship rather than obligation
• Visions discerned with humility and obedience
• Founding the Discalced Carmelites amid opposition
• Partnership with John of the Cross
• The seven mansions of the Interior Castle
• The Way of Perfection as a practical guide
• Enduring legacy through pilgrimages, retreats, and resources
