DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom divine visions to self-tortures, some strange mystical experiences have shaped the Christian tradition as we know it. Full of colourful detail, Mystics of the Christian Tradition examines the mystical experiences that have determined the history of Christianity over two thousand years, and reveals the often sexual nature of these encounters with the divine. In this fascinating account, Fanning reveals how God's direct revelation to St Francis of Assisi led to his living with lepers and kissing their sores, and describes the mystical life of Margery Kempe who 'took weeping to new decibel levels'. Through presenting the lives of almost a hundred mystics, this broad survey invites us to consider what it means to be a mystic and to explore how people such as Joan of Arc had their lives determined by divine visions. Mystics of the Christian Tradition is a comprehensive guide to discovering what mysticism means and who the mystics of the Christian tradition actually were.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSaint John of Kronstadt (1829-1908) served 53 years of his ministry at St Andrew's Cathedral, Kronstadt, devoting himself to the salvation of the city slum-dwellers. His charitable works became famous as did his healing prayers, rumoured to work miracles. He and his works became the object of pilgimage and he was considered a saint long before his ecclesiastical canonization in 1990. Although these selections are intended primarily for priests, the laity may also benefit from the words of St John of Kronstadt.
