Synopsis

In this booklet the author takes us on a journey back through Irish church history since 1100AD. Henry II came here with Papal authority to bring Ireland under its political control and the aberrant Celtic Church under the authority of the Papacy, through its use of the gradually developing Doctrine of Discovery and the “empire spirit”. He argues that there is much in the separate histories across the island of Ireland that we collectively need to understand, own, repent of and be reconciled over, especially in the light of the fact that we have been divided over the same root issue mentioned above – the spirit of empire. We continue to see the fruit of that “seed” being played out politically, spiritually and culturally today. What is present is a tool for discussion, prayer, repentance and reconciliation - the possibility of a new narrative for moving forward!
