St Philip Neri in the 16th century would gather those each day who were desirous of seeking Christian perfection. He would read from a spiritual book and then discourse on the meaning of what was read. This podcast (and the nightly prayer group from which it springs) seeks to carry on St Philip’s method of helping people become holy, even saints, in their own homes.

Did Mother practice penances and mortifications?
Yes. Exterior ones. Interior ones. She also accepted the great torture within her soul for the love of Jesus.

Did Mother have success in following a plan of life and keeping her resolutions?
Yes. But her notes for the ninth day also show her prudence and her flexibility in keeping her rules. Mother Teresa knew how to live out the true spirit of her plan of life.

How did Mother Teresa set up a plan of life?
With great clarity, courage and supernatural outlook. We read about the eighth day of her 1959 retreat, based on the notes that Jesus made her give to him. These notes on the eighth day are incredibly revealing about Mother’s effort to find God.

Did her fellow MCs realize the extent of her interior torments?
No. Her closest collaborators did not know. They saw the fruitfulness of her work. They saw her joy. They saw her prayer. They had no idea of the intense interior trial of her heart. They did not know that her intimacy with Christ had been veiled in Mother’s own sense that God was absent.

What made Mother Teresa unique among God's saints?
The length of her interior darkness; the way she grasped the "'painful thirst' in the Heart of Jesus for the poorest of the poor." Her special way of sharing in Christ’s own thirst on the Cross.
