LISTENING FOR THE HEARTBEAT OF GOD: A Celtic Spirituality

Phillip Newell, author of the book we will be exploring says, “God’s heartbeat can be heard in the whole of life and at the heart of our own lives, if we will only listen.” This idea – that God’s dwelling-place is in the world – is one of the cornerstones of Celtic Christianity. Come learn more about this rich Scottish and Irish tradition which inspires today’s Iona Community.
