This text defines the unique characteristics of Scottish - as distinct from "Celtic" - spirituality. The author surveys the history and character of the Presbytarian church, explores the special place of Scripture in Scottish theology and traces the history of Scottish Christianity from the earliest times. The ten chapters are in chronological order, from the first introduction of Christianity in Roman times to the present day. Topics covered include: Columba and Iona; the importance of Scripture in Scottish medieval monastic art; the Reformation; the survival of the Roman Catholic church, as well as the roles played by the Episcopal and Baptist churches; the impact of the Highland Clearances; revival and mission in 19th century Scotland; and the search for Scottish Christian identity today.
