The Way of Perfection

Christian Classics

By: St. Teresa of Avila

Narrated by: Becky Brabham

This work was originally composed by St. Teresa of Avila (1515 - 1582) for her fellow sisters of the Carmelite Order. Although written for nuns it is very much accessible to modern readers. In this classic book she guides her fellow sisters on the way to union with God through prayer and meditation, offering helpful advise for readers to seek self-perfection. Her words are practical and heartfelt, coming from her personal experience. The book is less formal and gives a more clear form of St. Teresa's theological views than her autobiography or her famous book, The Interior Castle.
