About the Book

God and the soul are one. And yet they remain lovers.

You have sensed it in silence, in nature, in fleeting moments of prayer: a unity deeper than doctrine, a presence that dissolves the boundary between self and the divine. Yet every tradition you have explored seems to split apart what you know in your bones belongs together. Eastern nonduality dissolves the self entirely. Western theology insists on separation. You are left stranded between two worlds, longing for a path that honors both union and relationship.

Melted Between Two Mirrors: Nonduality in Christian Mysticism reveals a rich, indigenous Christian nondual tradition that has been hiding in plain sight for centuries. Drawing on the Desert Fathers and Mothers, Meister Eckhart, John Ruusbroec, Jacob Boehme, Thomas Merton, and Thomas Keating, Stephen Hatch illuminates a vision of divine union that is relational rather than absolute: God and the soul melt into one another like two facing mirrors, each reflecting the other into infinite depth.

Rooted in five decades of contemplative practice, Hatch approaches this tradition not only through theology, but through a distinctly poetic and imaginal lens, using metaphor, paradox, and evocative imagery to lead the reader beyond concepts into direct experience. Set against the luminous landscapes of northern New Mexico, the book invites a way of knowing that awakens wonder rather than resolves it-where mystery is not solved, but entered.

Inside these pages, you will discover:

  • A distinctively Christian nonduality that preserves love, diversity, and the living relationship between self and God
  • The hidden role of Sophia Wisdom and the sacred feminine in the mystical tradition
  • Six original contemplative practices, including See-Through Meditation and Two Facing Mirrors Meditation, for embodying nondual awareness in daily life.
