2. Christian Mystics: Their Lives and Legacies throughout the Ages4.50 out of 5.00 stars
By: Ursula King
Publisher: HiddenSpring
2001-09

This book is pretty bare bones. It's mostly made up of light historical accounts of great mystics of the past. I found it very dry. Not much of the mystic's actual teachings are covered. It all feels more like a term paper than a rich compilation. I recommend this instead if mysticism is what you're into: [...]... more

5. The Prophet Muhammad: A Biography4.00 out of 5.00 stars
By: Barnaby Rogerson
Publisher: HiddenSpring
November 03, 2003

It is well written account of the Prophet's life. However, at many places the author makes observations that makes one wonder! The inferences drawn at multiple locations appear to be in conflict the way Muslims believe. The problem with Western writers (non-Muslim) is they tend to rationalize events and injunctions as if Prophet mohammad recited the Quran on his own accord. It is because they cannot... more

6. Being Home: Discovering the Spiritual in the Everyday4.50 out of 5.00 stars
By: Gunilla Norris, Greta Sibley
Publisher: HiddenSpring
January 02, 2002

I enjoyed this book and the photography in it. But honestly, some of the poetry just seemed a wee bit contrived to me... as if Norris HAD to find something holy in the act of locking a door or shoveling.

There are parts of it that are very well written, I love reading her prefaces and such in all her books. And parts of the actual prose was meaningful for me. But I'm glad it was just... more

7. Becoming Bread: Embracing the Spiritual in the Everyday5.00 out of 5.00 stars
By: Gunilla Norris, John Giuliani
Publisher: HiddenSpring
2003-01

This little gem of a book keeps inviting me back to its lovely layers of meaning. It would be wonderful to read aloud for small church or retreat groups having a Communion service, what with its imagery of baking, breaking, and "being" bread together. It talks about transformation (in baking) and the pain of waiting and becoming, with allusions to Christ in us. What a clever metaphor and comforting... more

8. The Age of the Cloister: The Story of Monastic Life in the Middle Ages5.00 out of 5.00 stars
By: Christopher Nugent Lawrence Brooke
Publisher: HiddenSpring
2003-04

First, a few samples:

"The razors for shaving were kept by one of the monks under the chamberlain's jurisdiction, locked in a box in the cloister near the door to the dormitory. At the appointed time he organized a group of monks in two rows in the cloister, one row to shave, the other to be shaven, and the task was performed to the accompaniment of a psalm." (79)

By: Adrian House, Karen Armstrong
Publisher: HiddenSpring
2001-03

Powerful details of this saint's life. First to receive the stigmata. His prayer composition which begins, "Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace..." was known by me my entire life before realizing it was penned by St. Francis. Humbling in his devotion to God and his fellow man... more

10. The Age of Pilgrimage: The Medieval Journey to God5.00 out of 5.00 stars
By: Jonathan Sumption
Publisher: HiddenSpring
2003-08

This book not only proved a gold mine for my current writing project, it is also a charm of a read. Sumption's prose goes down like a fine wine; his knowledge is vast but expressed with economy and an abundance of enjoyable stories and often comic escapades. This book is truly an example not only of rigorous scholarship, but of the kind of work that can provide intellectual uplift and be enjoyed... more
