Brendan’s Return Voyage: A New American Dream

Theology

“In Brendan's Return Voyage, Ray Simpson presents a vision for our troubled world, an interweaving of diverse perspectives as rich as the intricate patterns in a Navajo rug or the Celtic knotwork in an illuminated manuscript. In four major sections, he discusses the divine wisdom in Indigenous teachings, a critique of Western (especially American) culture, a survey of Celtic and monastic Christianity, and a synthesis of these elements as a way for humanity's future. This is a rich smorgasbord of information, and readers will want to chew slowly to fully benefit from the author's copious insights.”
