Reviews

[Joshua · Rating 4 out of 5]

Beautiful summary of the Celtic way of following Jesus, and of what it speaks to us today.

[Christen · Rating 4 out of 5]

It's funny how cyclical history is. This history of the Celtic Christians of Britain and Ireland offers much to the church today, a path for healing, unity and communion with each other and the natural world. Highly recommended.
