A Little Daily Wisdom: through the year with Saint Teresa of Avila

by Bernard Bangley, Teresa of Ávila

St. Teresa of Avila is not a lofty, inaccessible saint; she’s a companion who has guided Christians through their own interior “castles” for hundreds of years. Honest, humorous, and insightful, her devotional and spiritual reflections show readers how to open up themselves to God in new ways. This journey through Teresa’s life and writings will engage readers for a full year, with carefully chosen daily selections from a broad range of her writings—letters, poems, memoirs, and spiritual and theological musings. Bangley makes these writings accessible—and essential—through new translations into contemporary English.
