Title: Episode 27: Mary Kloska Speaks on Blessed Titus Brandsma -Carmelite Priest Who Died in Dachau
Description: In this episode, Mary continues exploring the mystery of Jesus bringing a soul through darkness, suffering and even death in order to conform it completely to Himself crucified. She speaks about the life of Bl. Titus Brandsma, a Dutch Carmelite Friar who taught at the University, was involved heavily in journalism and quite outspoken against the Nazis and who eventually was imprisoned and died in the concentration camp in Dachau. Mary explains this holy friars spirituality of creating an 'enclosed garden' for God inside of one's soul, and how this sustained him and even helped him to grow towards union with God during his stay in the prison cells of several concentration camps. Drawing from his love of St. John of the Cross and St. Teresa of Avila, Blessed Titus was able to turn his prison cell into a paradise where he could meet with God. Please LISTEN and SHARE.
