Fire Within

Written By Christ The Reconciler

Want to nourish your prayer life? Fr. Thomas Dubay’s majesterial book is meat, not milk.

Fr. Dubay draws from two authors who were also contemporaries and friends - St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross. Fire Within explores how these two saints use very different language to approach the same themes:

  • Contemplation

  • Experiencing God

  • Detachment

  • The Dark Night of the Soul

The best summary I can give is the one that Fr. Dubay gives himself, in an opening chapter:

A book on advanced prayer is a book on advanced joy. It is a love story, a book about being loved, and loving, totally. It is a book on holiness, the heights of holiness to which the Gospel invites everyone.

Ready for some advanced joy? It is hard work, but completely worth it!
