Greater Perfection, Being the Spiritual Conferences of Sister Miriam Teresa, popularly known as Greater Perfection, is a series of writings by Blessed Miriam Teresa Demjanovich, S.J., edited posthumously into a book by her brother, Monsignor Charles Demjanovich.

The book is better to be “read” than “listened to” because of the structure of the sentences, however, it is still very good listening and I hope you do so, and subscribe to the audio “podcast” on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
