Description
Riding with the Lion: A Journey to Recover the Mystical Heart of Christianity This book aims to uncover the spiritual practices that have been suppressed by mainstream Christianity, revealing a vital living tradition based in ancient Christian thought. Kyriacos C. Markides embarks on a journey across Europe and the Mediterranean, exploring mystical practices that have been largely overlooked. Markides' quest uncovers a Western Christian spirituality that includes space for mystical practice, blurring the lines between Eastern and Western esoteric traditions. The result is a significant contribution to our understanding of the cultural significance of mysticism in Christianity. By examining the intersection of East and West, Markides sheds new light on the hidden spiritual practices that have shaped the history of Christianity.
