Sacred Stones: Celtic Crosses and Their Timeless Call for Soul Growth, Community, & Connection with Nature (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781625249234)

Weaving together Celtic wisdom, sacred stories, and scriptural insights, this profound work guides readers into a deeper relationship with the Divine as expressed through the ancient symbolism of stone. The author masterfully bridges earthly and spiritual realms, using the Celtic cross as a central metaphor for exploring life's deepest mysteries. He invites readers to pause and sink into a more contemplative pace, as each page unfolds like ripples on water, expanding outward from concrete observations into universal truths about human experience and spiritual longing. For those seeking to reconnect with both their innate humanity and the transcendent Divine, this book serves as a trustworthy guide.

Kenneth McIntosh leads us on a vision quest through the sacred landscapes of Celtic Christianity, offering stories and insights passed down from ancient guides to modern seekers. For those weary of institutional boundaries and searching for deeper connections, this book offers a way back to the trusted paths the wisdom keepers once walked. As I read from a First Nations heart, I knew I had found a kindred traveler-one I could walk the good road with. Step into these pages with an open heart, and you may hear Creator's invitation to follow the footsteps of "good-hearted ancestors" that lead to "rest for your weary souls" (Jeremiah 6:16).

-Terry M. Wildman, Lead Translator and Project Manager of the First Nations Version New Testament

In this incredible book Ken McIntosh not only unpacks the history of the sacred stone crosses, but he also takes us on a transcendent journey into something greater than the stones' physical or mythological history. As you read this book, the very Earth itself, imbued with the Divine presence, will speak to you.
