Finding Fire With Tony De Mello

This book is an attempt to bring the vitality and energy of Anthony de Mello to as wide an audience as possible. Its themes include: Who was Tony de Mello? Why did his work create a stir among Christians? What is meditation? Callanan examines different types of meditation and fantasy prayer; styles of reflection that de Mello used with his audiences; getting life into focus; pain and failure in our lives. Like the work of de Mello himself, John Callanan's book is an attempt to give those who search, those who think and those who suffer some food for thought.

Quotes

  • Eliezer Garciahas quoted10 months ago
    Tony de Mello is said to distance himself firstly from the question of there being a personal God. Secondly, he is said to give insufficient weight to the uniqueness of Jesus and seems to put Christ only on a par with other prophets. Lastly, de Mello is said to distance himself from the explicit authorities of the scriptures and of the Church.
