Celtic Christianity
I’ve always been interested in church history - it seems to me we can learn a lot about the present, and perhaps the future, by examining the experiences of Christians who lived for Jesus in the past.
Some time ago I was thinking about how Christianity needs to find expression within each culture, and that got me thinking about whether there had ever been a distinctive British form of Christianity. At the same time, I was also thinking about ways to communicate the unchanging Gospel in our rapidly changing, post-modern, post- Christian culture.
I looked at the origins of Christianity in Britain, during the Roman occupation and the so called Dark Ages, a time of great change and uncertainty not unlike today. The stories of the men and women who brought Christianity to Britain, and an examination of the way they lived struck a chord with me. It challenged me to examine my own faith and spirituality afresh.
On this site I have tried to outline some of my personal discoveries, in the hope that they may be of use to others who are seeking to travel this “ancient path”
