Summary: What is a mystic? Who is a mystic? Can we define mysticism? According to Carl McColman, perhaps not! Mysticism, you see, is a paradox. (But of course. Why are we surprised? Isn't the divine always hiding in paradox?) In his book, The Big Book of Christian Mysticism, Carl McColman helps us hear the call from the mystics to live a contemplative life, enter the mystery, and engage in "prayer beyond words."
