"I have longed to discover a community that would allow a Celtic experiment to take place. Such a possibility is described in Bishop Ed Leidel's Awakening Grassroots Spirituality." "In this guide, Bishop Ed Leidel shares with us such a vision, and gives us tools with which to bring the vision into being. The book helps us explore what it might mean to have a hearth - God's hearth - at the heart of a person, a parish, and a diocese." - Ray Simpson, Celtic author and Guardian of the Community of Aidan and Hilda This guide is about grassroots spirituality; it's about a spirituality that is accessible to everyone; it's about growing in God's Presence in community.
