The Celtic Cross is a fascinating symbol that blends Christian and Celtic traditions. One of the most famous examples is the Cross of Scriptures at Clonmacnoise in Ireland. This cross, carved from sandstone, stands about four meters high and is adorned with intricate panels depicting scenes from the Bible, such as the Crucifixion, the Last Judgement, and Christ in the Tomb.
The Celtic Cross itself typically features a cross with a circle around the intersection of the arms. This circle is often interpreted as a symbol of eternity, the sun, or the halo of Christ. The origins of the Celtic Cross are believed to date back to the early Middle Ages, with some theories suggesting it was introduced by St. Patrick to help convert pagan kings to Christianity.
Restoration Ministries had been active with E Raymond Capt and other Scholars, hosting and co-hosting their seminars, and distributing books from the 1980s. In 2000 Dr Stephen M B Knott was made Editor of the Ministry Newsletter. Dr Knott was appointed manager of the Celts Roots bookshop in 2003 (a business of Dr Warren Johnson).
We owe a debt of gratitude to Dr Johnson and E. Raymond Capt M.A. A.I.A. F.S.A. SCOT. (Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland etc) for their hard work, coaching and inspiration during our founding years. Since then numerous festivals have enjoyed this genre of Celtic books.
