  • Mystical Visions
    Jul 17 2025

    Mystics can experience mystical visions that give them insight into the spiritual realm and that can bring messages from God. Whether they are visions of Christ Himself, the Virgin Mary, Angels, or even other saints, this mystical phenomenon plays a vital role in the life of mystics. In this episode, we go over the three types of visions mystics experience and discuss some of the messages they convey to them and to the world.

  • Mystical Apparitions
    Jun 19 2025

    For many Christian mystics who live holy lives of prayer and dedication, visions of heavenly beings are not out of the ordinary. However, heavenly visions are not always exclusive to mystics. Throughout church history, apparitions of heavenly beings have appeared countless times to regular people, often children, sometimes creating confusion and many times changing lives, countries, and even regions. In this episode, we talk about apparitions, mystical visions experienced by non-mystics.

  • Madame Guyon: A mystic for Catholics and Protestants
    May 15 2025

    Born at the end of the 30-Year’s War, the worst bloodbath ever in Christian history, with Protestants and Catholics killing each other, involving most western European nations, Catholic mystic Madame Guyon (Jeanne-Marie Bouvier de La Motte Guyon 1648 -1717) devoted herself to a life of prayer amidst intense suffering. Ironic for her era, her mysticism crossed confessional lines and appealed to both Catholics and Protestants.

Dr. Eire is a thoughtful commentator on the history of Christian mysticism. Human experience of the preternatural is ubiquitous. Dr. Eire's explanation gives the mystical a substantial presence in intellectually. You can believe or not believe, but an honest listener needs to deal with the human experience of the mystical.
