Description
There are many books that explore actual, physical, sacred space and pilgrimage sites. This is a different kind of book. It introduces seven traditional ‘sacred spaces’ but then leads readers into a deeper reflection on what such ‘sacred space’ means in our own lives and experience. The various sacred spaces explored are: the Celtic Cross; the infinite knot; hilltops; wells and springs; causeways and bridges; thresholds and burial grounds; and boundaries. In each chapter, the author introduces a ‘sacred space’ as the main theme and then illustrates this by associating it with a particular stage of life and a particular sacramental experience. The ideas are then brought together by means of a scripture story.
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
"Silf has a wonderful gift for taking the common places where most of us have been - beneath the surface to a deeper significance. At her touch, the undergrowth of our lives is shown to be a burning bush." Anamchairde
"Margaret Silf writes in a very accessible way. Sacred Spaces could appeal to a wide spectrum of spiritual seekers." SpiritualityAvailable Editions
