Book Description
While weaving together Clare’s story and Francis’s story, Margaret Carney draws special attention to Clare’s significant contribution to the Franciscan world in the many years following Francis’s death. Far from merely reflecting Francis’s light, Clare had her own charism, “a gift bestowed by the Spirit of the Lord and given to her in a fullness and forcefulness that was hers alone." This book will introduce St. Clare of Assisi to those who do not know her and those who wish to know her better. It leads the reader from Clare's birth to her death. While taking account of modern scholarship, Sr. Margaret Carney tells the story of this medieval woman in a way readers today can understand.

Book Description
As spiritual guide and director, Teresa of Avila placed prayer at the center of the relationship between the human person and God. She is best known for her mysticism, but this volume presents the many other kinds of prayer that sustain us over the course of our lives. She places steadfast trust in God as the cornerstone of a holy life, but insists upon intellectual engagement and good judgment, objectives this 15-day journey will help readers achieve. Teresa of Avila is a faithful mentor for anyone seeking a spiritual education. Saint Teresa of Avila, a 16th-century Carmelite nun and Doctor of the Church, withstood tremendous opposition to revive the primitive monastic rule and conditions of poverty, hardship and solitude for religious life. With Saint John of the Cross, Teresa became an influential spiritual director, leaving a legacy of classic writings that include The Way of Perfection and The Interior Castle, her most complete statement on prayer and contemplation.

Book Description
This is the American edition of Sr. Frances Teresa's Living the Incarnation: Praying with Francis and Clare of Assisi, co-published with Darton Longman & Todd of London. Friends of Franciscan Press will recognize Sr. Frances Teresa as the translator of Marco Bartoli's Clare of Assisi; this is her first original book-length work, one which articulates the message of Francis and Clare and the call of the Gospel for contemporary readers. In telling the intertwined stories of Francis and Clare, Sister Frances Teresa helps us to understand more clearly the call of the gospel in our own lives. In Clare's words, "the son of God has become our way and Francis shows it to us." "Look at Christ, " she tells us again and again, and the stages outlined In this book -- conversion, contrition and communion -- are simply ways of describing the process of doing just that, of isolating moments in the process of looking at, and learning from, Christ.
