We Don't Purge
Your first duty as a Christian Mystic is to know yourself. That encompasses a whole lot of territory. Jesus told the Samaritan woman at the well her religion was bogus, that Samaritans didn’t really know who God was. He also … Continue reading

You're On Your Own
For a Christian Mystic, not every question is so easily answered. I’m one who takes the Bible very seriously as a record of God’s revelation. It’s as much as anyone can really know intellectually about God, and all we are … Continue reading
