 For nearly 500 years, the Interior Castle by St. Teresa of Avila has been read and misunderstood by millions. The Commentaries from TAN is proud to bring you this new series on the Interior Castle, featuring Father Timothy Reed, a Third Order Carmelite, and Priest of the Diocese of Charlotte. Now in my personal life, no one has proven more able than Father Reed to explain the challenging, often confusing works of the Carmelite mystics and offer real, practical advice on how to apply their lessons in our daily lives. The Interior Castle is perhaps the most well-known of all St. Teresa's writings, and it stands today as one of the greatest treatises on the spiritual life in the history of the Church. Truly, this is a book that every Catholic should read if you're serious about the spiritual life. In this book, St. Teresa imagines our souls as magnificent castles and dwelling in the very deepest center of our souls is God Himself. And through this book, she takes us on a tour of the Interior Castle, showing us the sure and certain way through prayer that leads to union with God and helps prepare us for heaven. Like so many of the great classics written by the saints, I know that reading this book with an open heart and an open mind can change your life, draw you closer to God, and make you more desirous of real holiness. So I hope you'll join me on this journey through the Interior Castle.
