from Draycote and Leam Valley Benefice · host Phil Price

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the quiet, earthy wisdom of early Celtic Christianity and ask what it might offer our rural communities today. Far from being nostalgic or overly romanticised, the Celtic tradition is deeply practical and rooted in the rhythms of creation, silence, stillness, and everyday life.We’ll explore:What the Celts meant by “thin places”How to find sacredness in ordinary routinesWhy silence and stillness matter more than everHow journaling and small practices can deepen faithThe importance of local community in spiritual growthWhether you’re a lifelong rural dweller or simply yearning for a deeper connection with God in the chaos of modern life, this episode invites you to slow down, look again, and discover that the divine is far closer than we think.
