What has been the draw toward the Celts for me?
For example, the artwork such as the illuminated knot-work, the mystery, the music, the story, and folklore, ancient wisdom, the saints who were ordinary people like you and me, plus the focus on nature and the God who was the creator of the beauty around us. I see a bond with my native land, my Scottish ancestry, the Celtic prayer, having a connection with land, and everyday life, and community!

Alan Ford and Thomas O’Loughlin, both professors in Nottingham, discuss the current interest in ‘Celtic Christianity’ and how what is imagined as the form of Christianity in the British Isles in some far-distant past may tell us more about today’s desires that about the early middle ages.
There are many areas and questions I want to try and address personally or through links from other people’s websites.
What is Celtic Christian Spirituality?
What are the benefits of Celtic Christian Spirituality for you as a person?
Who are the key Celtic saints, the figures that give an example to live by, who have enhanced and made an impact on society because of their beliefs and lifestyle?
What are the nuggets of truth, wisdom, from Celtic Christian Spirituality that are helpful and inspirational?
What is the benefit?
What difference can it make in the Church, how can Celtic Christian Spirituality benefit the church?
I will attempt over the next few months and year to try and answer some of these questions. I’m a fellow pilgrim on a journey of discovery and don’t claim to be an expert. I will add my findings, and also videos, and other links to helpful sites that I find as a research.
Please contribute by making suggestions by forwarding links regarding items of interest to me by e-mail. arestorartivetouch@gmail.com
I would appreciate any input and will make changes that can be beneficial for all on the subject of Celtic Christian Spirituality. Most of all may we be drawing nearer to God through what we encounter in the journey.
