Discover and strengthen your interior life with St. Teresa of Ávila.

“The soul of the just person is nothing else but a paradise where the Lord says he finds his delight.”

In The Interior Castle, St. Teresa of Ávila invites us into the depths of the soul, revealing how God desires to draw each of us into a profound and intimate union with him. How can we grow in prayer and allow our hearts to become a dwelling place for God?

Rooted in St. Teresa’s own experience of prayer, The Interior Castle offers profound wisdom for navigating the interior life, helping us recognize God’s presence and respond to his invitation to deeper intimacy with him.

A spiritual classic since the 16th century, The Interior Castle continues to illuminate the path to holiness for Christians today. St. Teresa’s insights reveal the beauty of the soul’s relationship with God and offer a roadmap for growing in prayer and holiness.

Ascension’s brand-new second edition of The Interior Castle features the official Carmelite translation, making St. Teresa’s profound teachings more accessible to today’s reader while remaining faithful to her original work. Approachable commentary before each chapter from Fr. Michael-Joseph Paris, O.C.D. and Sr. Mary Clare Mancini, O.C.D. provides additional context and insights to help readers understand and apply this remarkable work to their own prayer lives.

Fr. Michael-Joseph Paris of St. Thérèse, O.C.D., is a Discalced Carmelite friar of the Province of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, a contemplative order devoted to seeking union with God through friendship with Jesus Christ in the spirit of Mary. He serves as subprior and director of postulants at the Carmelite community of Holy Hill in Hubertus, Wisconsin. Raised in Maryland, he returned to the faith as a young man after a period away from the Church, drawn back through Scripture and prayer toward a call to the priesthood.

Fr. Michael-Joseph studied philosophy at St. John’s University in New York and theology at Mount St. Mary’s Seminary in Emmitsburg, Maryland, and was ordained for the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C., in 2011. After several years in parish and campus ministry, he entered the Discalced Carmelites in 2016, later studying Carmelite spirituality in Ávila and Madrid and earning a License in Spiritual Theology from the Pontifical University of Comillas in 2022. He professed his final vows in 2023. A member of the Institute of Carmelite Studies and host of its Carmelcast podcast, he joined Ascension as co-host of Catholic Classics for its third season, guiding listeners through St. Thérèse of Lisieux’s Story of a Soul.
