(No, you're not crazy. If this sounds familiar, that's because this video is a remake of the first video I made for this channel. Our community is growing, and it has been bothering me that our mostwatched video, and what could be a viewer's first impression of mystical Christianity, has such poor sound quality. Here's what 2+ years of videomaking progress looks like. Many thanks to all of you "day ones" who have come along for the ride.)

What is mysticism? What is Christian mysticism? If you're curious or skeptical about either of those questions, welcome to my channel!

My name is Jon, and I've been studying ancient Christian mysticism academically for several years and applying its principles to my own faith. I think it has great potential to return Christianity to a better practice of Jesus' vision, and to help individual Christians have deeper experiences of the Spirit of our faith. That being said, there's a lot of work to be done to make our mystical traditions more accessible and easier to practice hence this channel.

I invite you to explore Christian mysticism with me, until Christ is formed in us!

Questions and comments are more than welcome.

If you want to start with more mystical prayer practices right now, instead of waiting for me to get around to them in a video, check out my book, Present to the Presence of God, available from Amazon: https://amzn.to/32ywxD1

You're also invited to join us every Monday for spiritual readings from the Gospel of Matthew, right here on this channel. Welcome friend, and thanks for watching.
