Description:
To explore and recover the Celtic roots of Christianity is to reclaim a forgotten heritage, one that deepens and enriches spiritual life. "The Celtic Way of Prayer," written by Esther de Waal, one of Celtic Christianity's preeminent scholars, shows how this tradition of worship draws on both the pre-Christian past and on the fullness of the Gospels. It is also an enlightening glimpse at the history, folklore, and liturgy of the Celtic people.
Expand description
Esther de Waal introduces readers to monastic prayer and praise (the foundation stone of Celtic Christianity), early Irish litanies, medieval Welsh praise poems, and to the wealth of blessings derived from an oral tradition that made prayer a part of daily life. Through this invigorating book, readers enter a world in which ritual and rhythm, nature and seasons, images and symbols play an essential role. A welcome contrast to modern worship, Celtic prayer is liberating and like a living spring, forever fresh.
