Sinopsis

In "Prophetic Mysticism of John of the Cross (Collected Works)," the author delves into the profound spiritual insights and poetic brilliance of one of the foremost mystics of the Catholic tradition. This compilation reveals John of the Cross's intricate exploration of the soul's journey toward divine union through the lens of his distinct literary style, characterized by rich metaphor and lyrical intensity. The book situates itself within the context of 16th-century Spanish mysticism, capturing the tensions and transformations of a period marked by religious reform and spiritual renewal. John of the Cross, a Carmelite friar and theologian, devoted his life to the pursuit of mystical spirituality, which is deeply reflected in the collected works presented here. His own experiences of intense suffering, contemplation, and divine illumination served as a crucible for the eloquent and intricate works included. The socio-religious landscape of the Counter-Reformation played a crucial role in shaping his thoughts, pushing him to articulate a unique theological understanding that marries profound spirituality with poetic expression. I highly recommend this collection to anyone seeking a deep and enriching engagement with the subtleties of mysticism and spiritual poetry. Readers will find themselves invited into a transformative reflection on the nature of divine love, suffering, and the soul's ascent, making this work essential for both students of theology and aficionados of spiritual literature.

Love Peace and Joy - Devotion to...

Fr. Andre Prevot

One of the greatest saints in the history of the Church, Saint Gertrude the Great began life in 1256. She was given to the schools of a Benedictine monastery. She excelled in intellectual activity and learning, but, in her twenties, she became most preoccupied with theology, the Fathers, and the Scriptures. Her holiness was hidden, as she constantly prayed to God to keep it, but she manifested miracles and experienced raptures. Writing many works of piety, she endeavored to raise others to the rarefied sanctity which she was privileged to have obtained early in life.  
With her devotion from a young age, Saint Gertrude also received numerous visions of Our Lord and Our Lady. Before St. Margaret Mary a few centuries later, St. Gertrude was one of the first to gain revelations about the Sacred Heart of Jesus and how best to honor It in private devotion. Her concern was for His immense charity to become Incarnate, to die for our sins, to institute the Blessed Sacrament, and to offer Himself as an eternal Victim for our sake—all of which Christ Himself explained to her the mystical significance of. Based on these revelations, Love, Peace, and Joy provides little-known ways to gain great graces quickly and advance rapidly in Divine Charity. Most important among these practices is the placement of our prayers in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, that they might be perfected and made more pleasing to God. The insights received by Saint Gertrude are matched by very few other mystics', showing her privileges before the Throne of God; let this book show you the secrets of her own sanctity, concealed in the Heart of the Divine Redeemer.
