A new book by Aidan Nichols is always worth celebrating. Deep Mysteries: God, Christ and Ourselves provides us with an inspiring and elegant contemporary volume of spiritual theology and also reminds us that this theology can never be removed from a convincing account of the essential historicity of the Scriptures, especially of the Gospels.
— Petroc Willey, Professor of Theology, Franciscan University of Steubenville
This is a book we need. It brings us back to the deep mysteries of Christ, from the announcement of his Birth to his Return in glory. In true Nichols-ian fashion, it contemplates Scripture, Liturgy, the Fathers, great twentieth century theologians and contemporary scholars, enabling us to catch the divine music of ''the Mysteries" and draw truth and life from these wellsprings of salvation.
— Hugh Gilbert OSB, Bishop of Aberdeen
