Produktbeschreibung

Often, when we meet in sacred places, we do so not so much as fearfully and wonderfully made creatures who gather to join our souls in the worship of our Creator, we rather meet as holders of time and money who come together to be influenced by those with an agenda, even God's agenda. Patrick understood God was the Creator who delighted in the Irish finding their own place within his creation: their place of resurrection. As a result, they wandered because they could. They doodled in their manuscripts because they felt that leaving a little of their own identity in the pages of Scripture wasn't a bad thing. They retreated to solitary rocks in the North Atlantic for no other reason than to find an isolated place in which they could enjoy God's creation and his presence. They connected with a God who animated their lives and seemed to be happy with just that result. This truly fresh and inspirational take on the Gospel message leads you through the annals of Irish history to see how the gospel transformed an entire culture in a way the Irish still consider positive, that continues to inspire others, and that they could not contain to their own shores. Explore ancient Irish myths, read the words of Patrick himself, discover how the Irish search for truth and beauty was the animating feature of their faith.
