Fundamental themes of Carmelite spirituality emerge in the story of the human heart. These themes reveal a spiritual dynamism at the core of the Carmelite life which can be described as “seasons of the heart.”
Exploring a Spiritual Dynamic of the Carmelite Way
Carmelite Conversations throughout 2026 will explore these “seasons of the heart” as a way of facilitating spiritual journeys. There are five seasons identified in this exploration:
1 A longing heart – a desire for God
2 An enslaved heart – the worship of false gods
3 A listening heart – contemplative prayer
4 A troubled heart – the tragic life
5 A pure heart – the transformation of desire.
The session in February will be an Introduction to the Seasons of the Heart which will also explain the 2026 program. It will include Q&A, discussion and shared listening.
THE ZOOM LINK will be emailed Sunday night before the Wednesday event.
