The Big Book of Christian Mysticism is truly a work of art as well as a spiritual guide. I highly recommend this book not only for general readers, but also for undergraduate or graduate students who need an introduction to Christian mysticism.

A brilliant contribution from a clear, concise and articulate author! Carl McColman’s The Big Book of Christian Mysticism deepens the conversation as he explores the paradoxes of the mystical/traditional approaches, outlines the bias against cultivating an interior life and illuminates the reader on practices to embrace in order to relate to a dynamic Living God.
