The book delves into the Celtic perspective on creation, emphasizing the inherent goodness and beauty of the world as reflections of God's nature. Unlike the traditional Christian view that often shuns the material world, it presents a transformative understanding that recognizes the potential for divine revelation in all aspects of creation. Each chapter highlights different attributes of God as manifested in the natural world, encouraging readers to appreciate and embrace the beauty around them.
