Celtic Christian Communities: Live the Tradition Book

From Christian meditation and labyrinths to Gregorian chants and pilgrimages, people everywhere are looking backward to find soulful ways forward. In Celtic Communities, Bradley explores the resurgence of interest in the practices of the early Celts of monasticism, blessing & cursing, saints, and pilgrimage and their relevance for our post-modern world and contemporary Christian life.
