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

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.
