As Matthew Fox notes when an aging Albert Einstein was asked if he had any regrets he replied I wish I had read more of the mystics earlier in my life. The 365 writings in Christian Mystics represent a wide-ranging sampling of these readings for modern-day seekers of all faiths or no faith. Fox is uniquely qualified to comment on these profound sometimes startling often denounced insights. In 1998 this longtime member of the Dominican Order was silenced by Cardinal Ratzinger now Pope Benedict for his Creation Spirituality an ecumenical teaching that embraces gender justice social justice and eco-justice. The daily readings he shares here speak to the sacredness of the earth awe and gratitude darkness and shadow compassion and creativity sacred sexuality and peacemaking.
