Join world-renowned Carmelite scholar Professor Keith Egan as he guides you through the powerful teachings of the wise mystic Teresa of Avila.

Great Saint Teresa, the Spanish Carmelite of the 16th century, captured the imagination of those seeking God in her own time and beyond. It’s no surprise that she was quickly canonized and, in 1970, became the first woman Doctor of the Church.

Through these 12 edifying audio lectures, you’ll understand why her teachings remain transformational today.

Prof. Egan will carefully guide you through Teresa’s teaching about prayer—ordinary and mystical—meditation, and contemplation. Through these 12 graceful talks, you will come to more fully understand prayer as Teresa did, as an “exercise in love.”

    Great introduction

    If you want to appreciate more deeply Teresa of Avila, her life and spirituality, this program is a great introduction.

    Summer Survey: July 2017

    The courses given by Keith Egan were so informative and spiritually invigorating. I keep listening to them over and over again. Keith’s knowledge and personal experience of Carmelite spirituality bring to life the spirit and works of Teresa of Avila and John of the Cross.
