Our goal here is simply to talk about the spiritual life from a Carmelite perspective - something that we already do in the monastery on a regular basis. Through this podcast, we hope to open the conversation up for you to listen and join in. We’re by no means experts on these topics, but we believe that our Carmelite tradition and saints have a lot to offer to those seeking to grow closer to God.

Great Podcast

I really enjoy your podcast especially the tie-ins with the books and study guides. I’m looking forward to catching up and seeing what’s next. Who would have guessed that Carmelite Spirituality could actually be so accessible?

A sanctifying podcast

Excellent podcast that offers practical wisdom to achieve holiness. I appreciate that the Brothers don’t need to use flowery or humorous dialogue to grab the listener’s attention.
