Mystics: The Beauty of Prayer

Fr Craig Larkin's deepest regret was that "religion has succeeded in making too many people in fear of God;" that it had become a source of anxiety for many Christians. With this book, he tackles those fears as we discover, through a most friendly read, the lives and influence of fascinating characters like Julian of Norwich, Dante, or Teresa of Avila. Their challenges and their spiritual journey are not only insightful, but also a source of guidance for those who seek to understand the mystery of God.
