CarmelCast
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.

How St. Thérèse Found God in the Desert

Lent is a season of conversion—a time to return to that first encounter with God’s love. St. Thérèse of Lisieux remembered hers clearly: Christmas night, 1886. After years of spiritual struggle, she received the grace to overcome her self-preoccupation and embrace love and sacrifice.
Like Moses at the burning bush and the Samaritan woman at the well, Thérèse’s encounter changed everything. God calls us to the same transformation—to receive His love and share it with others. This Lent, let’s open our hearts to His presence once again.
