The Will, The Intellect, and the Secret Knowledge of Love
Episode 20
Wednesday, 12 August, 2026
In this episode of Midnight Carmelite, we explore the deep connection between prayer, the intellect, and will. Drawing on the wisdom of St. John of the Cross and a famous illustration by Bishop Fulton Sheen, we uncover how intellectual knowledge naturally leads to love and how love, in turn, begets a profound "love knowledge" that surpasses all concepts. We discuss why God sometimes withdraws spiritual consolations and how true prayer is found not in feelings or inspirations but in the silent, refocusing act of the will choosing to love God for who He is.The Midnight Compass: Stop treating the Dark Night like a mood disorder.
