A true religious renewal according to Fox can arise only through the mystical dimension of faith. In Christian Mystics  he offers a wide-ranging collection of quotations from Christianitys greatest mystics and prophets of the past two thousand years. Fox explores and celebrates the mystical path with insightful commentary on the thoughts and revelations of some of historys greatest religious visionaries.
