In recent years, labyrinths have been rediscovered as a powerful spiritual tool. In 1998-99, alt-worship groups came together to work on an event to mark the Millennium. The result was a contemporary version of a cathedral labyrinth, combining ancient Christian tradition with contemporary music, meditations, art, media and activities at intervals along the path. In the years that followed, this Labyrinth had a profound impact on thousands of users as it was installed around the world. In this book, Jonny Baker outlines the ideas and history behind the Labyrinth experience within the context of a well developed theology of labyrinth as a spiritual tool. But rather than explaining these themes in a rational and didactic way, the language used is full of imagination, artistic endeavour, images, symbols and metaphors that are evocative of the Holy. Baker both challenges and inspires us to find a new - yet ancient - way to connect the Gospel with the spiritual seeker.
