First Review!

“Mike Aquilina’s Signs and Mysteries provides a popular yet academically rigorous guide to symbols in the early church. The immediately accessible prose — which quotes thoughtfully from the church fathers, classical and Jewish sources — is complemented by generous illustrations. He has not only drawn on the obvious archaeological and epigraphic record, he has also delved into the fascinating world of Christian graffiti. An essential book to keep to hand when visiting early Christian sites.”

The “generous illustrations,” numbering in the hundreds, are by the great Lea Marie Ravotti. The book is out any day now. Order yours today!

  1. Hello Mike!
    I’m brother Jacques… not sure if you remember me though. I’m from Lebanon, entered the Antonin Maronite Order about a year and a half.

    Congratulations for your new books. In 2007 Fr. Nasser Al Gemayyel (from Lebanon) published a book quite similar to yours, in Arabic, entitled “Christian Symbols”. A comparison between the two works should be quite interesting! I’m guessing that yours is much more comprehensive though.

  2. Congratulations, Mike! It’s a good feeling to finally get a finished produect, after all the hard work.

  3. Mike – Congrads!

    The Lord is really using you to help all of us
    understand true Christianity from the start.

    I can hardly wait to read your book!
