Shea helps Jesus the teacher come alive for this
generation.Catholic New Times
Another marvelous volume by gifted spiritual writer John Shea. For
those whose spiritual discipline concentrates on the lectionary
readings, this will be another excellent guide.Catholic New
Times
Unlike most lectionary commentaries this book is not an exegesis of
the biblical passages as such, but each gospel text becomes a focus
of Shea’s characteristically wise and engaging reflections on the
connection of the gospel stories to our experience. Because of this
the volume can serve as rich spiritual reading as well as offering
leads for preaching and teaching.The Bible Today
People in the pews will welcome this weekly challenge of the
spiritual wisdom of the Gospel texts.Prairie Messenger
This book is ideal not only for preachers and teachers but for
anyone who wants to access the wisdom contained in the Gospels. . .
. Dipping in to the book at random has whetted my appetite, and I
look forward to using the volume over the course of the coming
liturgical year.Spirituality
An invaluable resource for presiders and people, parents, teachers,
catechists, and all who desire the Spirit’s ‘pleasure, passion, and
purpose’ in their lives.Prairie Messenger
