Summary
"Ian Bradley takes the Celtic knot, with its endlessly interweaving and intertwining patterns, as the key to understanding Celtic Christianity. He shows the significance of saints such as Patrick, Columba and David, examines the abiding power of places like Iona and Lindisfarne, and explores the main themes of Celtic spirituality and theology. The Celtic Way has helped many readers on their own spiritual journeys and opened their eyes to hitherto neglected strands in the Christian tradition." "This new edition includes a new Introduction in which Ian Bradley reflects on the changes and developments that have taken place in the Celtic Christian scene since The Celtic Way first appeared. The Celtic way remains one which speaks directly to the needs of our own age and has much to teach us."--BOOK JACKET.
