For centuries, people have been drawn to the Christian mystics--women and men who have known God in powerful and experiential ways. Mystic Bonfires is for students, scholars, and practitioners of ministry, theology, and spiritual formation. It explores theology and theory and shares insights for practice and prayer. Readers will encounter classical concepts about the spiritual life and how to apply these concepts to their ministries in faithful and creative ways. Mystic Bonfires includes questions for students in academic and formation settings as well as project ideas for congregations. Mystic Bonfires explores the intersection of spiritual theology and practical theology. Walter Hilton, a 14th century English mystic and a contemporary of Julian of Norwich serves as a case study for the intersection of these fields called practical spiritual theology.

Anglican Dominicans: An Introduction for Seekers and the Curious offers the reader an opportunity to explore a fascinating new form of religious life, which mixes together ancient monastic commitments, internet communication, and a zeal for spreading the message of the Gospel. Traditional orders of monks and nuns have existed for thousands of years, but the Anglican Order of Preachers embraces men and women, married and single, ordained and lay, from across the world. "Informative is not a sufficient word for the scope of this work. It is informative, but it is more, it is invitational -- that is, it invites one to learn, know, discern, and possibly relate to the Dominican way of being spiritual. He shows significantly that spirituality is more than doing things a certain way, it is being spiritual in a certain way." - The Very Reverend Doctor Jeffery Mackey, O.P. Founder of the Anglican Order of Preachers
