beautiful prayers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This is a beautiful book of prayers and meditations to be read in the morning and evening. It is touched by Christianity, but focuses on finding God in all creation. I am glad I purchased it.

Listening with the Heart

J. Philip Newell is a well-respected sage of Celtic Christianity, which has enjoyed a deserved revival in the past two decades because of the beauty of its language and its vivid imagery. In "Sounds of the Eternal: A Celtic Psalter," Newell has drawn inspiration from the oldest hymnbook of the Judeo-Christian tradition, the Psalms, and combined them with images and rhythms of Celtic spirituality. The resulting prayerbook can bring refreshing streams to any soul traversing a spiritual desert. This reviewer found the book to be best used when its prayers are prayed aloud in solitude, to give the magnificent language an opportunity to be heard by heart as well as mind. Added to the language are rich illustrations, which combine the Psalms' Hebrew history with the vivid jewel tones of Celtic art, creating designs that serve a nearly-iconic purpose for meditation. Newell's book is a worthy addition to anyone's library of spiritual resources

prayers for all people
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This lovely book offers a cycle of morning and evening prayers which are not specifically Christian and which, therefore, could be used by Jews, Unitarian Universalists, or non-affiliated persons, as well as Christians. The imagry of the words is oriented to the grandeur of creation and the illustrations come from Jewish and Celtic manuscripts. The book is well-constructed, which is important for a book that is meant to be used on a daily basis.
