Voyages with the Celtic Saints
ByPublisher Description
recounts the inspired lives of the Celtic saints, who carried the torch of the new faith of Christianity to the wild tribespeople of Britain and Ireland. Finding many parallels between their own wisdom and that of the Druids and other teachers of the Celtic people, they adapted their own teachings to include and reshape that of the older wisdom.
• Features stories from the lives of 14 inspiring Celtic saints who lived between the third and seventh centuries CE
• Scholar John Matthews retells and provides commentary on these stories, making them relevant and accessible to modern readers
• Meditation notes and questions at the end of each chapter for those wishing to deepen their understanding of the stories and question their own voyage
• Updates from prior edition with new illustrations by renowned artist Joe Machine and two additional entries on women saints, St. Gwenfrewi and St. Goibniu
• Includes inspiring foreword by David Spangler, one of the founding figures of the modern New Age movement
