Publisher Description:
This meditative title offers a 40-day reflection on The Breastplate of St. Fursa, an ancient Celtic Christian prayer invoking God's blessing and protection on the life of the one who prayed it. Symbolically the ancient Celt would use such a prayer to rededicate to God every part of their physical body and every aspect of their daily life. Deconstructing each verse, the book expertly draws on fresh insights gained from Celtic spirituality and applies its context to the reader, drawing out the understanding and profound challenges that come from encountering a Christian brother from another world. Though written in a disarming format and with gentle tone, the text is not without grit and guts, nor without an edge, coming as it does from a seemingly familiar yet quite foreign form of the Christian faith: the Celtic way of giving oneself to God, and invoking God's blessing and protection on the one offering the prayer. +
