As spiritual guide and director, Teresa of Avila placed prayer at the center of the relationship between the human person and God. She is best known for her mysticism, but this volume presents the many other kinds of prayer that sustain us over the course of our lives. She places steadfast trust in God as the cornerstone of a holy life, but insists upon intellectual engagement and good judgment, objectives this 15-day journey will help readers achieve. Teresa of Avila is a faithful mentor for anyone seeking a spiritual education. Saint Teresa of Avila, a 16th-century Carmelite nun and Doctor of the Church, withstood tremendous opposition to revive the primitive monastic rule and conditions of poverty, hardship and solitude for religious life. With Saint John of the Cross, Teresa became an influential spiritual director, leaving a legacy of classic writings that include The Way of Perfection and The Interior Castle, her most complete statement on prayer and contemplation.

In telling the intertwined stories of Francis and Clare, Sister Frances Teresa helps us to understand more clearly the call of the gospel in our own lives. In Clare's words, "the son of God has become our way and Francis shows it to us." "Look at Christ, " she tells us again and again, and the stages outlined In this book -- conversion, contrition and communion -- are simply ways of describing the process of doing just that, of isolating moments in the process of looking at, and learning from, Christ.
