Kenneth McIntosh has taken a good approach for this subject: Tell stories, tell some history, illuminate application for contemporary life. Why more books on celtic faith don't tell stories is a mystery.
The text is a very good overview of the nature of Celtic faith for a contemporary audience. It's broad and not particularly deep, but tells its story well - it calls the listener to a holistic, embodied faith that is missing from much of Western Christianity. It sets the Celtic faith in its cultural, historical and religious context very well, and is particularly strong at describing the unique nature of NATURE in this stream of faith. Chapter 7 (God revealed in nature) and Chapter 8 (Furred and Feathered neighbors) are highlights.
The chapter on the everyday nature of Celtic prayer was a disappointment - far too brief and shallow - and should be supplemented with one of the other excellent resources on the subject.
I teach a graduate level course in Celtic spirituality and am using this text as one of our two primary texts (with Esther de Waal's Celtic Way of Prayer), and supplemental readings. McIntosh's work compares well with several works by Ian Bradley, Ray Simpson and other contemporary writers on the subject.… (más)
