Liturgies of the WildLiturgies of the Wild

"Martin Shaw proposes that we look to the "ancient technologies," the myths and initiatory rites, for help achieving maturity and wholeness. Drawing on his experience as a guide for wilderness rites of passage, Shaw teaches you to read a myth the way it wants to be read; provides vivid retellings of tales powerful enough to carry you through life's travails; and shows you how to gather and reshape your own thrown-away stories. Most vividly, he shares 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"-- Provided by publisher.
