Overview

Popular author Margaret Silf introduces you to the seven traditional ‘sacred spaces’ - reflect on practises and scripture.

There are many books that explore actual, physical, sacred space and pilgrimage sites. This is a different kind of book. It introduces seven traditional ‘sacred spaces’ but then leads readers into a deeper reflection on what such ‘sacred space’ means in our own lives and experience.

The various sacred spaces explored are: the Celtic Cross; the infinite knot; hilltops; wells and springs; causeways and bridges; thresholds and burial grounds; and boundaries.

In each chapter, the author introduces a ‘sacred space’ as the main theme and then illustrates this by associating it with a particular stage of life and a particular sacramental experience. The ideas are then brought together by means of a scripture story.
