Author Description

"Graydon Snyder tells the story of two different Christianties - the Roman and the Celtic. He traces the ancient path of the Celts, wandering from Galatia, in what is now Turkey, to Ireland. In Galatia, their practices and beliefs did not fit with Paul's teaching and interpretation of the Jesus tradition. The Celts, for example, did not believe human nature was corrupt, but instead affirmed essential human goodness and focused on the compassionate elements of the Jesus tradition."--BOOK JACKET.
