Interior Castle (part 1): The Our Father Prayer
Description
St. Teresa of Avila, in her classic masterpiece, The Interior Castle, teaches us how to become more intimate with God by journeying through the seven mansions/dwelling places of this interior castle of our soul. A great way to identity each of these degrees of intimacy with God is through the “Our Father” prayer. This provides a new perspective that can be very helpful in understanding this journey as well as in deepening our prayer.
