Inner Way
by John Tauler
Summary
A 14th century Dominican, John Tauler was a renowned preacher of the middle
ages. Although not as speculative or poetic as some of his contemporaries,
Tauler's sermons are among the noblest, showing his gift for clearly expressing
spiritual truths. Inner Way is a collection of his festival sermons. Often
called a Christian mystic, Tauler emphasized the "blessed contemplation" of
God. However, his emphasis on divine contemplation was always tempered with
practical advice for daily Christian living. Inner Way is consequently a true
gem. It is historically valuable, spiritually enriching, and ideal for the
liturgical season. Many believers--including Martin Luther--have found these
sermons engaging and instructive. They are well worth the read.
