  2. I have been contemplating in the spiritual life for more than 20 years but after listening to this, and the “Last Retreat” I feel like I am just at the beginning of my conversion. Amazing and life changing with this new saint. I have very similar health problems as St. Elizabeth so, I am so glad that I did not die before incorporating these purifying contemplative retreats. I thought that I was ready but God is intervening for my salvation.

  3. Dear Anthony and Kris,

    Thank you so much for this wonderful resource. I continually come back to your discussion of St. Elizabeth’s phrase, “my deepest center.” What a helpful description for contemplative prayer!

    Thank you both,
    Blake
