As we reflect on our lives, especially as we grow in wisdom and knowledge, we realise that over time we have experienced inner awakening. The men and women of our Christian mystical tradition have over the centuries, given voice to their rich “interior well.” As we explore and reflect on their writings, we find that Christian mysticism is like a continuous thread which not only enriches our faith tradition but also our personal faith and spiritual journey. During our time together we will touch briefly on the writings of several of our Christian mystics.
