"In 'Heart and Mind,' Dr. Shaia gives us back our central sacred text - the four gospels - not as conflicted and faulty historical records, but as a vibrant, luminous path of transformation. He reveals "The Four-Gospel Journey" as a living guide (for Christians and seekers alike), re-centering human life on wisdom, compassion and service, rooted in a mystical relationship with Christ. And the potential for this living guide is already becoming manifest, as individuals, groups and entire communities are using it all over the world, and the word is spreading." - from the Foreword by Marc Andrus, Episcopal Bishop of California.
In this fresh lens, each gospel account is more than a telling of Jesus' life and words. Each is the story of a practice in response to a pressing life question. The Gospel of Matthew: How do we face change? Mark: How do we move through trials and suffering? John: How do we receive joy and know union? Luke: How do we mature in service? And these four gospels are more than the sum of their parts. The four in the sequence of their ancient reading cycle form a telling of the universal journey of growth, transformation and love. In our language, The Four-Gospel Journey is the pattern of the living Christ - the pattern within all and across all time. And if you wish to explore this journey with another or a small community - see the "Heart and Mind Companion Guides" at www.quadratos.com There is a Guide for each gospel path, as well as a series that supports you in making an entire cycle of The Four-Gospel Journey.
