Synopsis
Ray Simpson, Founding Guardian of the Community of Aidan and Hilda, explores Celtic Christianity through some of its key concepts—and some of the criticisms raised against it. He shows how the Celtic affirmation of creation and of equality and love among human beings holds the key not only for the future of the Church but of the whole planet.
Faced with the impending climate crisis and significant and irreparable damage being done to the earth, Christians are looking for inspiration and potential sources of hope—and the Celtic tradition may well be able to offer that hope by rooting us more deeply in God’s world.
The author sets out twelve elements which characterise Celtic Christianity as keys to helping humanity to reverse the escalating trajectory of the climate crisis – and live more simply. … [He] believes that Celtic Christianity, universally directed by Christ, selflessly applied and cherishing creation, can transform humanity to do God’s will on earth, as it is in heaven. Let us pray that this miracle comes to pass.
