Thin Places: Where Is God

In search of the places where Heaven and Earth Collide

Do you believe that there are places where heaven feels just a breath away?

Where the veil between the seen and unseen grows wears away, and we sense the nearness of God? I’ve felt it, have you?

The ancient Celts called these places the “thin places.” They were sacred spaces where the distance between heaven and earth almost seemed to collapse in on itself. The Celts believed these places, windswept cliffs, quiet monasteries, and towering cathedrals, were charged with the presence of the Creator. The New York Times even wrote an article on them.

But is it just a mystical thought, or is there something more to it?
