Sacred Earth, Sacred Soul

Celtic Wisdom for Reawakening to What Our Souls Know and Healing the World

De: John Philip Newell

Narrado por: Angus King

A leading spiritual teacher reveals how Celtic spirituality - listening to the sacred around us and inside of us - can help us heal the earth, overcome our conflicts, and reconnect with ourselves.

John Philip Newell shares the long, hidden tradition of Celtic Christianity, explaining how this earth-based spirituality can help us rediscover the natural rhythms of life and deepen our spiritual connection with God, with each other, and with the earth. Newell introduces some of Celtic Christianity’s leading practitioners, both saints and pioneers of faith, whose timeless wisdom is more necessary than ever, including:

• Pelagius, who shows us how to look beyond sin to affirm our sacredness as part of all God’s creation, and courageously stand up for our principles in the face of oppression.
• Brigid of Kildare, who illuminates the interrelationship of all things and reminds us of the power of the sacred feminine to overcome those seeking to control us.
• John Muir, who encourages us to see the holiness and beauty of wilderness and what we must do to protect these gifts.
• Teilhard de Chardin, who inspires us to see how science, faith, and our future tell one universal story that begins with sacredness.

By embracing the wisdom of Celtic Christianity, we can learn how to listen to the sacred and see the divine in all of creation and within each of us. Human beings are inherently spiritual creatures who intuitively see the sacred in nature and within one another, but our cultures - and at times even our faiths - have made us forget what each of us already know deep in our souls but have learned to suppress. Sacred Earth, Sacred Soul offers a new spiritual foundation for our lives, once centered on encouragement, guidance, and hope for creating a better world.

A Gift from Heaven For the Ages.

This book is medicine to all spirits on this planet and is timely in its arrival. If not now, then when?? Time is of the essence for our enlightenment. Thank you to the author and all of his book’s participants. May all spirits be lifted.

Powerful

EVERY word of this book rang Truth throughout my body, heart and soul. Will probably use this as scripture for my life.

Spiritually wonderful

The only issue I had was the push of socialism. I was all in until the end of chapter five. I would listen again despite the socialist push tho.

Proclaim the Holy Love

My whole being filled with joy to hear others reclaim that God is good and creation is good. Original goodness! The fact of evil is not looked over. Instead, example, after example are given of those who lived in hope and sought to proclaim the joy of living in the way of love and peace. Thank you for this book!

Excellent

This book was awesome from start to finish, I enjoyed every chapter and liked the fact he held you accountable for what was speaking to you within each chapter

Life changing

I'm always thrilled when an author and narrator can deliver what so clearly needs to be heard. Beautifully done.

MUST READ FOR DECONSTRUCTION

This book is hands down the best book I've ever read (listened to) on Christianity. True Christianity embodying the radical love of Jesus. It stands in complete opposition to everything the modern church teaches. Well researched and refreshing. This book is nourishing to the soul and makes you want to take a walk in the woods with God. The author is knowledgeable about the source material and the narrator is a joy to listen to. The whole book feels like listening to a mentor talk about the world over a pint. It's wonderful. I truly can't recommend it enough.

Celtic Philosophy

I loved this book! The performance is great, and the text shares enlightening perspective on nature and culture.

This book makes my soul soar!

As a devout Christian, I felt deeply connected to my spiritual heritage, to the sacredness of nature, and most of all, to God and my Savior, Jesus Christ—the Creator of all. Sacred Earth, Sacred Soul beautifully weaves together ancient wisdom, Celtic spirituality, and reverence for creation in a way that aligns so powerfully with my own faith. It stirred something deep within me and reminded me that honoring the earth is a form of honoring the One who made it.

This book is absolutely in my top 10 favorites of all time—a treasure for the soul and a gentle call to walk in deeper connection with both Spirit and creation.
