ABOUT.
Beni Johnson in her book entitled 'The Happy Intercessor,' describes Christian mystics as
'people who have laid down their entire lives to seek after one thing, the very heart of God. One
of the things that make “mystics” different from other people is that they have only one desire, to
know God in His fullness.'
We often associate mystics with well known personalities of the past such as Augustine, John of the Cross, Catherine of Genoa, Joan of Arc, St. Francis of Assisi, most from the Catholic faith. Consequently there is a common belief that mystics are rare and even relegated to the past. Yet in every period of the Christian church the numbers of hidden mystics far exceed those recorded. They are drawn from all walks of life and vocations. Some are famous scientist like Isaac Newton, the father of modern science. Others remain unknown like Lucie-Christine, French woman, housewife and mother of five children whose mystical journals were discovered after her death. Here's an excerpt from her diary of her encounter with God - 'my soul found itself transported into the Infinity of God; not merely as into some new region ,but as if, having lost it's own life, it was living in the Infinite itself.' These unknown Christian mystics are life giving members of the Church.
This book is a compilation of encounters and revelations from Historical, Biblical and Modern Day Mystics. For the Modern Mystics we found and interviewed individuals that have interacted with God like the saints of old. These encounters include everything from dreams, transportations, visions of Jesus, angels and heavenly visitations. This book will most certainly stretch your expectation for how God has and desires to interact with His followers. Our vision is that the encounters and lifestyles of the mystics interviewed would create a hunger in you for union with God. We hope that as you read the book the encounters would leap from the pages and ignite your hearts for the sake of Christ and His purpose - reviving our heart to love. And as we encounter Him how can we not become more like Him, this is the intent of mysticism!

Reckless Abandonment
Kalina Georgieva
The God of the Impossible is unstoppable in revealing His heart, which releases and enables us to enter into and possess our unshakeable inheritance of being His beloved royal family-not only in the UK but throughout the world! In this audio I have shared only parts of my life transforming exchange with Him in the Moravian Falls at Thanksgiving 2013. It is not about me, but it is all about His glory through His burning holy fire, unfailing love and faithfulness.
I pray that this story would impart greater hunger in all of us for living in the fullness of His presence through intimate communion with Him. I also pray that it would empower many more hearts to live out recklessly abandoned to His call and purposes here and now for the nations of the world to experience our God of the impossible like never before. What happened during those few days is strongly rooted in scripture. It shows how He longs to co-create with us and has all the power to change history through us by the resurrection power of His Cross and the breath of His Holy Spirit in us.
