Yeah, him, active on TDN. I've seen nothing in what I've seen him write previously that would suggest anything other than typical neo-Druidry. Although the ex-Anglican could be interesting, it's not a new approach.

As far as I know he is still a Christian minister but not with a post due to matters completely unrelated to his involvement in druidry now.
His druidry end is pretty much neo-druidry but he's not writing about druidry in his book or Chrisitianity as such although both are mentioned. He's writing more about his experiences in finding the wonder in the world which isn't really path specific.
I didn't really know what to expect when I read it but I loved it and found part of it that really spoke to me.
I admit I probably wouldn't have brought the book but I got sent a complimentary copy because I contributed a bit to it. There's a section at the end where he's got short contributions from a range of folk. Anyway as I got sent a copy I read it and enjoyed it much more than I expected to.

Do I detect a little sarcasm, Megli?

None at all. I'm sure it is.

Well, I've actually brought it. It's interesting reading, but I have to admit to not actually "connecting" with it as much as some. Probably because I've never had an issue with Christianity. What it does demonstrate though is the struggle, albeit sub-consciously initially, that is created when the spirit uses a framework that is not flexible or applicable to the conditions of modern living, a problem that Christianity now faces.
