Why Lent Feels Like a Maze

CarmelCast

Lent can feel like a maze. But where is it all leading? Lent is not a program of self-improvement. It is part of something far greater: our transformation into the divine life of God. In this video, we explore why Lent exists and how Mary shows us the final goal. Visit retreat-online.karmel.at to sign up for the 2026 Online Carmelite Retreat Texts

About Podcast

Our goal here is simply to talk about the spiritual life from a Carmelite perspective - something that we already do in the monastery on a regular basis. Through this podcast, we hope to open the conversation up for you to listen and join in. We’re by no means experts on these topics, but we believe that our Carmelite tradition and saints have a lot to offer to those seeking to grow closer to God.
