George MacDonald
A Morning Star of the Reunion
Posted by Fr. Gabriel Gillen, O.P. on December 10, 2009
This video is the 1st of an 8 part series documentary on the life and works of the author, poet, and Christian minister George MacDonald. He was born this day December 10, 1824 at Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. G.K. Chesterton said this of George MacDonald: ". . . when he comes to be more carefully studied as a mystic, as I think he will be when people discover the possibility of collecting jewels scattered in a rather irregular setting, it will be found, I fancy, that he stands for a rather important turning-point in the history of Christendom, as representing the particular Christian nation of the Scots. As Protestants speak of the morning stars of the Reformation, we may be allowed to note such names here and there as morning stars of the Reunion."
