Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Shea (Inst. of Pastoral Studies, Loyola Univ.) began meditating on the gospel stories when he was 14. His long apprenticeship with the gospels shows in his text-centered approach to the six stories he has selected, which enriches our imaginative understanding of them without the burden of didacticism. He offers a good balance of necessary background and anecdotal embellishment to help the stories truly speak to the reader. An inspiring, thoughtfully chosen approach to Jesus' life and teachings in the gospels.

5.0 out of 5 stars gifted storyteller
He truly has a gift for story telling - especially the gospels. I have a cd audio set and reading him is not the same as hearing him tell the stories. But either way, it’s a great Bible study to soak in his wisdom.
5.0 out of 5 stars I was delighted to find I could get it through Amazon
This is an older book I use for reference. I used to borrow from an Ohio State Library and they no longer have it in circulation.I was delighted to find I could get it through Bolo.
5.0 out of 5 stars This man has something valuable to say
Reading a book by John "Jack" Shea is nothing like hearing him tell a story in person, but either way, you will be amazed how his stories sneak up on you. They stay with you and continue to teach you, popping into your head at the oddest times.Although he would never make this comparison himself, I couldn't help but think of how Jesus used stories to teach. The stories seem simple, but can be challenging, with substance in each story that will unfold as your understanding grows.I get the sense this man has done some extensive study, lots of soul searching and spent many an hour in prayer. Thank you John/Jack for sharing your wisdom on paper so the rest of us can ponder these stories in our own time.
