On Earth as It Is in Heaven (Yr A)​ - John Shea
This book is part of the series Spiritual Wisdom of the Gospels for Christian Preachers and Teachers. With a goal of transcendent awareness, John Shea presents this commentary on the Sunday Gospel readings for those who are drawn to the spiritual wisdom of the Gospels. Ideal for Christian preachers and teachers, and Christians who meditate on the Gospels, Shea's book takes a literary spiritual approach. He analyzes the mindsets of characters and how Jesus complimented, critiqued, praised these mindsets, to inspire meditation, reflection, and spiritual development. On Earth as It Is in Heaven, Year A is the first book of a four volume set, The Spiritual Wisdom of the Gospels for Christian Preachers and Teachers. This set is a Lectionary based resource that references both Roman Catholic and Revised Common Lectionaries, making it useful and interesting to various Christian denominations. A Scripture index makes Shea's insightful reflections accessible for personal reflection on the Gospel texts as well as other uses outside of liturgical preparation. With wisdom relevant to our contemporary world, The Spiritual Wisdom of the Gospels for Christian Preachers and Teachers: On Earth as It Is in Heaven will find its way to the top of your resource list.

John Shea, S.T.D. is a theologian and storyteller who lectures nationally and internationally on storytelling in world religions, faith based health care, contemporary spirituality, and the spirit at work movement. He has published thirteen books and lives in Chicago, Illinois.

Reviews
"Shea focuses on the conversational patterns that communicate spiritual wisdom. In particular, he pays attention to the art of Jesus' teaching style, how he gears what he says to the mindsets of people, and how he marshals his rhetoric in the service of breakthroughs in consciousness."
