Overview

How deep are the roots of pilgrimage in Christianity? Can we find new meaning and balance in modern life by following the path of pilgrims of ancient times?


In true Celtic fashion, Rev. Dr. David Moffett-Moore views life as a celebration to be shared and a pilgrimage to be explored, tracing his roots to the O'Mordha clan of ancient Ireland and the McQueen's and MacLean's of the Scottish highlands.

In Life as Pilgrimage, Dr. Moffett-Moore offers us the image of pilgrimage as a basis for spiritual health. Using the Peregrine falcon as an archetype for pilgrimage, this volume explores the roots of our ancient past to discover meaning for our modern lives. Celtic pilgrimage is about the journey rather than the destination: life is a pilgrimage from the place of our birthing to the place of our rising.

This book will be an invaluable aid in finding your way in a new and more powerful spiritual journey. The second edition is expanded and revised.
