Interior Life

The saints, the heroes of the Roman Catholic faith, lived lives of holiness, dedicated to serving God. The saints lived at different times in different places throughout history, but they all shared a love of God that has been documented through the teachings of the Church. Today, the saints serve as examples for all Catholics, showing the believers how to lead a more spiritual life. Catholic devotions are particular customs, rituals and practices of worship or in honour of the saints that are in addition to the liturgy of the Catholic Church.

What is spiritual direction and my spiritual direction? What are my "blind spots" and how can I uncover them? What keeps me from all the spiritual riches Christ has for me? How can I better understand where I am in my spiritual progress? Daniel Burke's Navigating the Interior Life will give you the tools you need to understand how and why we grow and die in the spiritual life and what we can do about it.

St. Veronica Giuliani (1660–1727) stands among the greatest mystics in the history of the Catholic Church. A Capuchin Poor Clare nun, abbess, and stigmatic, she lived a hidden life within the walls of her monastery—yet her soul traversed the deepest mysteries of Christ’s Passion.

Raptures, visions, locutions, diabolical trials, the transverberation of her heart, and finally the visible wounds of Christ marked her life. In 1697, she received the stigmata—the sacred wounds in her hands, ...

 The lack of revelation of what you now possess and how to intimately access God may result in a less-than-fulfilling Christian experience and lifestyle. The Glory Within awakens your spiritual senses and inner spirit so you can become the person God created you to be. 

You are not empty. You are unentered. Somewhere along the way you decided your interior life was a bare room. You pray and nothing echoes back. You sit in the quiet and meet only your own noise. You hear other Christians speak of closeness with God the way they would speak of an old friend, and you conclude that their house is furnished and yours never was. Four hundred and fifty years ago, a tired, sick, relentlessly busy Spanish nun named Teresa of Avila wrote The Interior Castle to say that conclusion is wrong. Not wrong because you are holier than you think. Wrong because you have been ...
