You remain adolescent at just the moment a culture worth its salt requires you to become a real, grown, human being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Liturgies of the Wild, acclaimed mythographer, storyteller and Christian thinker Martin Shaw argues that we live in a myth-impoverished age, cut off from the deep wells of story and meaning that once prepared us for life’s challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on the 'ancient technologies' of myths and initiatory rites, Shaw invites readers to rediscover the ancient stories that shape the human soul — and to encounter Christ as the ultimate, transforming story providing a road to wholeness, maturity and connection. Within these pages, Shaw:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eTeaches us to read a myth the way it wants to be read;\n\u003cbr\u003eProvides vivid retellings of tales powerful enough to carry you through life’s travails;\n\u003cbr\u003eShows you how to gather and reshape your own thrown-away stories.\n\u003cbr\u003eMost vividly, Shaw shares his own spiritual journey and how these ancient technologies led him – unexpectedly – to Christ, 'the True Myth,' by way of a thirty-year journey and a 101-night vigil in a Dartmoor forest.\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlending nimble storytelling in the tradition of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien with scholarly depth, Liturgies of the Wild s a thrilling counsel of resistance and delight in the face of many modern monsters, providing a transformative journey into story, spirit and self-discovery..\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin Shaw","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55547727282552,"sku":"9781846048913","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9351\/9316\/files\/10114827_LRG.jpg?v=1778076112","url":"https:\/\/etcevents.co.uk\/products\/liturgies-of-the-wild","provider":"ETCEvents","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
