Our Lady Of Mount Carmel

Send us Fan MailA mountain in the Bible becomes a roadmap for modern prayer. We follow the story of Our Lady of Mount Carmel through Scripture, tradition, and lived Catholic devotion, starting with Mount Carmel as the place where Elijah calls a wavering people back to God and the Lord answers with power and mercy. From that dramatic moment to the “still, small voice,” Carmel becomes a school for anyone who wants to trust God again when faith feels strained. We also dig into Carmelite spirituality, the rise of the Carmelite Order, and why Mary is honored under this title as a mother, teacher, and guide in contemplative prayer. If you have ever felt distracted, spiritually dry, or unsure how to pray beyond quick words, the Carmelite approach offers a simple but demanding invitation: show up, make space for silence, and let God work in the hidden places of the heart. Then we unpack the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, including its origin in Carmelite tradition, the famous promise associated with St. Simon Stock, and the crucial point many people miss: the scapular is not a charm or a shortcut. It is a sacramental sign that calls for real conversion, daily prayer, love for the Eucharist, and a steady “yes” to Christ with Mary’s intercession. We close with the meaning of the July 16 Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and how this devotion can shape an intentional Catholic prayer life today. If this helped you, subscribe, share the episode with a friend who needs encouragement in prayer, and leave a review so more people can find the Carmelite path to deeper trust.Open by Steve Bailey Support the showJourneys of Faith brings you Super Saints PodcastsChat with US 24/7 Ask us anything https://chatting.page/mjxs9aerrtgm3lmpndlcepmbyosntrjnDownload Journeys of Faith App for Iphone or Android FREE https://journeysoffaith.com/pages/download-our-appPlease consider subscribing to this podcast or making a donation to Journeys of Faith Help us Grow!Journeys of Faith is blessed to provide Catholic media, including podcasts and inspirational content, free of charge across multiple media platforms for viewers and listeners around the world.
