John of the Cross
Product Description
In this well-crafted introduction and anthology, Marc Foley leads the reader step by step into the very heart of the spiritual way taught by John of the Cross.
The core of the teaching is developed in carefully-selected excerpts from Johns own writings. The special gift of Ascent to Joy is that these excerpts are presented in a systematic order, so that the text can function both as a primer of Johns teaching and as a profound introduction to the contemplative way. This volume fills a much-needed niche in the array of spiritual books available today.
