The ancient Celts did not distinguish between the sacred and the secular. To these imaginative people, everything had spiritual significance. Simpson draws deeply from this rich Celtic tradition to compile a collection of blessings that celebrate God's truth in readers' day-to-day lives.

Writing well over a thousand years ago, the Celtic saints and their followers who penned them reflected not just the cares and concerns of their own times, but also gave voice to the universal human experience – the hopes, fears, joys and anxieties that are as much part of modern existence as they were in the Dark Ages. Meditations on birth, death and everything else that comes in between, as well as comments on the rhythms of everyday life, are mixed with musings on the natural world, the divine and, of course, the eternal questions that everyone asks.

This beautifully illustrated daily prayer guide, which offers simple outlines for morning and night prayer, draws on the insights of Celtic spirituality to attune us living as God's children in today's world. Original prayers and sensitively chosen Bible texts for meditation enable us to recover what the Celts knew instincively: that God is present throughout his creation and that as human beings, we are made in his image and carry within us the seeds of holiness and the potential of glory.

J. Philip Newell and his wife Ali were cowardens of the lay religious community of Iona Abbey in the Western Isles of Scotland. There Philip developed this book as an aid to daily prayer. Here is a weekly cycle of morning and evening prayers in the Celtic tradition, with gospel and psalm readings taken from the liturgical year. Each "day" reflects a concern of the Iona Community: justice and peace, healing, the goodness of creation and care for the earth, commitment to Christ, communion of heaven and earth, and welcome and hospitality.

The prayers contained in Celtic Prayers reflect the fusion of religion and life. Celtic Christians made no distinction between religion and daily life, no division between the spiritual and the material realms. They perceived the divine spark in every person, animal, and plant, and in every event. Their religion permeated every aspect of their existence. Even the most mundane activities merit prayers for God's blessings. Moments of crisis or scenes of great beauty stimulate prayers of deep emotion. These prayers provide a model for anyone who wishes to "pray without ceasing." This book of Celtic prayers differs from others in the market because its interior design is full-color, with art and graphics.
