<strong>About our drink:</strong>

<a href="https://www.compassboxwhisky.com/whiskies/the-peat-monster">Compass Box Peat Monster</a> - New batches of the Peat Monster boast a spectrum of powerful coastal flavours, combining the smokiness of a driftwood fire with more medicinal peat notes. Orchard fruits and rich cask-derived creaminess balance the multi-layered smoke. It is a new peaty landscape, as the Painting Label shows.

<strong>About our gear:</strong>

<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Sanctity-Saint-Francis-Sales/dp/1785167863">The Secret of Sanctity</a> - OUR GREAT HAPPINESS as Christians is to possess, in this world, through grace and love, Him Who deigns to be our beatitude for all eternity; and our greatest misfortune, after sin, is not to know or to recognize this secret of eternal charity. God would have us holy even as He is holy; He would have us live His very life. It is for this end that He has given us His divine Son, and with Him the infinite riches of His heart; that is. His merits. His sacraments, His Church. Sanctity consists in believing and receiving these divine communications, of which Jesus Christ is the source, the instrument, and the end; consequently, it also consists in uniting ourselves with Him by loving Him, and in modelling ourselves upon Him by imitating Him; it can and ought to pervade every life, the busiest as well as the simplest.

Rules of Life

<div class="libsyn-item-body">
<h2>St. Teresa of Avila gives suggestions on what to do if you don't have a prayer life or you feel like your prayer life is not advancing.</h2>
<strong>In this episode, we discuss:</strong>
<ul>
 	<li>What to do if your prayer life isn't advancing</li>
 	<li>Importance of the love for one another</li>
 	<li>Detachment from all created things</li>
 	<li>True Humility</li>
 	<li>Virtue inspires love</li>
</ul><br/>
<blockquote>
<p class="p1">“I shall mention some things that are necessary for those who seek to follow the way of prayer; so necessary that even if these persons are not very contemplative, they can be far advanced in the service of the Lord if they possess these things.”</p>
