Synopsis

Updated in 2017. Celtic Christianity is as exciting as it is intriguing, from the first native Christians in the British Isles, through to the great saints such as Patrick and Columba; coupled with the trials and triumphs of the historic Anglo-Saxon kings. For centuries, this unique and isolated expression of Christianity thrived in Britain and Ireland. Together Celtic Christians ignited a Celtic Golden Age of faith and light which spread into Europe. Discover this striking history, how a nation dedicated to God was born and what we can learn from the heroes of Celtic Christianity.

About the Author:

Paul Backholer is a broadcaster, author and the founder of ByFaith Media (ByFaith.org). Paul was born in the 1970s and was called to Bible College in the 1990s, where he later served as staff. As an adventurer following God's call, his Christian mission outreaches have taken him to over forty nations - from the slums of South America, from Cairo to the Cape, into China, across the Trans-Siberian Railway, into the Pacific and through the jungles of South East Asia. Paul has shared Christ in many nations and his ByFaith TV programmes have aired on more than fifteen Christian networks around the world. Having studied theology, Paul is committed to the integrity of Scripture and faithfulness to it. He believes walking closely with God is the most important thing in life, and it was an encounter with the Holy Spirit in his youth which led to him to serve the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul's books are birthed from his relationship with the Lord and focus on a variety of subjects, including walking closely with God, knowing the Holy Spirit, prophetic revelations grounded in Scripture, biblical archaeology and Christian history.
