Item Description...

A daily prayer book that invites participation by all ages, "Celtic Treasure" will enable families to draw regularly from the great riches of Scripture and Celtic Christianity. It can also serve as a refreshing resource for individual or small-group prayer.

In language that is striking for its simplicity and beauty, Philip Newell provides a retelling of a Scripture passage and original prayers inspired by the Celtic tradition for each day of the week. Over the course of seven weeks, these daily readings cover the whole arc of Scripture from the stories of creation and Israel through the life of Jesus and the New Testament letters.

Exquisitely illustrated throughout with images from the ancient "Book of Kells" and with children?'s vibrant interpretations of Celtic art, Newell?'s "Celtic Treasure" will lead families, small groups, and individuals from the noise and busyness of everyday life into the mystery and wonder of the God who has created us and loves us.

Reviews - What do our customers think?
Prayers that help spiritual growth.  Jan 9, 2007
Philip Newell's scriptures and prayers in Celtic Treasure, awaken us to new ways of thinking and experiencing our relationship with God. Through the use of images of light, creation, harmony, peace, being made in the image of God, spirit, etc. we are drawn closer to the true relationship that God intended us to have with Him. The translation of scripture is easy to read and could be used in settings with both children and adults. The format of prayer and scripture can be used to open or end a bible study or other small group setting, or can be used for individual meditation.
 
Perfect book for personal prayer  Jan 9, 2007
This is a beautifully written yet simple book of prayer richly rooted in the Celtic tradition. The language is both poetic and very ordinary - it soars and it yet says what one's praying heart may long to say in very ordinary language. It is a keeper!
 
Truly a Gem.  Feb 23, 2006
"Celtic Treasure" is a gem of a source for people who need a way to focus their attention on prayer, quiet, and seeking God. The illustrations are lovely, the wording is simple yet complex, and the prayers lead the reader into a sense of grace and wonder. From the lighting of the candle to illustrate the love of God as the light of the world to the blessing uttered before extinguishing the flame, the reader can be led into a peace-filled place to see the Creator at work. The scripture story is easy to read, but a deeper knowledge of the Bible tells the reader that the point of the story has been gathered into a comprehensible nutshell.
