My radio program/podcast this week is on ST. TERESA of AVILA and the French Carmelite priest PERE JACQUES BUNEL, who died from the concentration camps.
If you haven’t seen the last few weeks about these holy Carmelites (St. Therese of Lisieux, St. John of the Cross, St. Edith Stein, Blessed Titus Brandsma) and how the found Union with Christ through the suffering of darkness, abandonment, rejection and sometimes physical pain of the Cross, please GO BACK and LISTEN. These are such important lessons for us all in the midst of such difficult times.
And please LISTEN to this week’s episode and SHARE!
Title: Episode 28: Mary Kloska Speaks about St. Teresa of Avila and Pere Jacques Bunel
Description: In this episode, Mary continues discussing the idea of how God uses darkness, abandonment, suffering and other experiences of the Cross to unite as one with the soul. She specifically focuses on the teachings of the Carmelite St. Teresa of Avila on this topic, as well as showing the reality of these teachings in the life of the French Carmelite Pere Jacques Bunel (who died from what he suffered as a prisoner in a concentration camp, shortly after it was liberated after WWII. ) Mary ties together this process of union with Jesus Crucified that God leads many of His saints through -including mystical sufferings, as well as exterior sufferings imposed by the world around them. Through it all she offers hope that suffering is actually a sign of God's predilection and a means to make one holy.
