Voyages with the Celtic Saints recounts the inspired lives of the Celtic
saints, who carried the torch of the new faith of Christianity to the
wild tribespeople of Britain and Ireland. Finding many parallels between
their own wisdom and that of the Druids and other teachers of the
Celtic people, they adapted their own teachings to include and reshape
that of the older wisdom.
• Features stories from the lives of 14 inspiring Celtic saints who lived between the third and seventh centuries CE
• Scholar John Matthews retells and provides commentary on these stories, making them relevant and accessible to modern readers
• Meditation notes and questions at the end of each chapter for those
wishing to deepen their understanding of the stories and question their
own voyage
• Updates from prior edition with new illustrations by renowned artist
Joe Machine and two additional entries on women saints, St. Gwenfrewi
and St. Goibniu
• Includes inspiring foreword by David Spangler, one of the founding figures of the modern New Age movement
