false 193593 1 Discover the core of the Christian spiritual experience. Newman compared the early history of the Church to the opening chords of a symphony when the subjects that will later be brought out one by one are introduced all together in a concentrated burst of creativity. Here Clement takes these opening chords as a starting point for a voyage of discovery that brings us to the origins of Christian faith life and prayer as a whole. This anthology combines brilliantly chosen texts from the first seven centuries of Christianity with the author's vivid commentary to reveal the roots of Christian mysticism. 187222 1 1 1996 Roots of Christian Mysticism: Texts from Patristic Era with Commentary total:12|5:10|4:2| 12 58 22 3 0 0 false false Thu Mar 26 15:15:28 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 26 15:15:28 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Jun 03 20:06:44 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 03 20:08:42 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sun Nov 18 14:29:26 -0800 2007 Sun Nov 18 14:29:52 -0800 2007 0 0 false false Wed Nov 04 08:26:30 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 04 08:26:30 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 03 04:02:21 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 03 04:02:21 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Jul 19 15:52:29 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 19 15:52:29 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu Jun 04 11:39:27 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 04 11:39:27 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Mar 28 02:53:21 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 28 02:53:21 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Mar 14 09:31:19 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 14 09:31:19 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Mar 13 21:48:15 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 04 10:29:43 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jan 01 17:39:17 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 01 17:39:17 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Fri Nov 14 20:38:25 -0800 2008 Fri Nov 14 20:38:34 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Oct 09 16:36:10 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 09 16:36:10 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat Sep 27 12:57:20 -0700 2008 Sat Sep 27 12:57:40 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Wed Aug 06 13:10:13 -0700 2008 Wed Aug 06 13:10:13 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 1998 Fri Feb 29 15:19:24 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 29 15:19:40 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Tue Jan 29 22:20:07 -0800 2008 Tue Jan 29 22:20:07 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Fri Jan 11 10:56:14 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 11 10:56:14 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Fri Sep 21 14:06:08 -0700 2007 Fri Sep 21 14:06:08 -0700 2007 0 0 false false Sat Jul 14 06:55:08 -0700 2007 Sat Jul 14 06:55:11 -0700 2007
