Heart and Mind: The Four Gospel Journey for Radical Transformation, by Alexander John Shaia

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, 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. -Marc Andrus, Episcopal Bishop of California This book enriches prayer. Every word is delicious. -Mpho Tutu, author, Director of the Desmond and Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation A book which will change the way people look at the gospels entirely, and I'm not just talking about Christians. -Lauren B. Davis, novelist, author of Our Daily Bread Shaia's ground-breaking insights over a profound template through which to navigate life. Here is surprising new wine from an ancient vineyard. -Cath Connelly, Celtic Spiritual Director, Harpist, Melbourne In a rapidly changing world many people are rejecting ideas about God and faith and religious institutions. Heart and Mind is a compelling invitation to give these ideas another chance. -John Stewart, Anglican Priest, Director of e Living Well Centre, Melbourne Alexander John Shaia is a thoughtful and poetic man, living the ancient rhythms of his Lebanese and Aramaic heritage. Alexander is a spiritual director, educator, psychologist and passionate professional speaker traveling internationally, lecturing and leading retreats and workshops. When not on the road, home is the Blue Door in Santa Fe, New Mexico or an apartment in Auckland, New Zealand.

A marvellous read - life changing
By Cath Connelly
A most engaging book. It opened up for me a new paradigm through which to live the Gospel message. Shaia presents four distinct questions being posed to the communities into which each gospel has been written. He argues convincingly that Matthew's gospel is written to a community facing great change after the destruction of the Temple. In this context, Shaia asks questions about how we might move through a time of change, sustained by our faith and the insights of Matthew's Jesus. Mark's gospel asks how to live in crisis. The community of Mark were, under Emperor Nero, imminently facing death. Mark writes into this situation. Shaia shows how this provides us with a guide to face our own crisis. John's gospel is of a garden of joy. Shaia explores how we learn to receive joy, explaining how it often arrives completely unexpectedly, moving us from crisis to delight almost with a blink of the eye. One of the delights of this book is the imperative Shaia presents that we must give of ourselves to bring all to oneness. This is a life of service, living a journey of travelling a path of commitment. Shaia argues that the gospel of Luke addresses this most important question - how do I move on in service? A truly great read. I have also loved the way that Alexander Shaia and his team have provided a Companion Guide to use within a group context to explore how the questions and life-path of this four-path journey of change, suffering, joy and service (which Shaia names as Quadratos) are lived out in our own lives. I have found the Guides a great companion to this book.

Why Four Gospels? A transforming approach
By gary bouma
Why five Stars? This book has been personally transformative and has brought new energy to my preaching.

Shaia answers the question about why there are four Gospels and not 1 or more. Yes each tells the same story but in quite different ways. Each was written into a particular socio-cultural situation: Matthew to early ‘followers of the way’ immediately after the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem and asks ‘Where is God in change? Mark was written for Christians in Rome who were being persecuted and violently killed for their faith and asks ‘Where is God in suffering?’ Luke (with Acts) is written to growing and thriving Christian communities and asks ‘How do we mature in service?’ John was written to early Christian communities who were becoming increasingly diverse and threatened with internal conflict and develops a vision of unity by asking ‘How do we receive joy?’ The lectionary in use in the majority of Western Christianity takes us on a journey through the three synoptic Gospels using John in the high festivals of faith. In so doing we are taken through a transformative journey through change and suffering to service and joy.

I have found his approach personally transforming and to bring radical new life to my preaching.

A TIMELY BOOK FOR CHRISTIANITY IN THE 21ST CENTURY
By Joy Ryan-Bloore
I have known Alexander Shaia since he came to New Zealand and have become increasingly aware of the important place he plays at the inter-face of religion and psychology. In this book he brings together the best of scripture scholarship, psychology and Christianity in a way which is life-giving and which assists those who are looking for a deeper understanding of their own lives and the role of the great Christian tradition, in the 21st century. Recently I attended a funeral for a cousin of mine. His death was premature and as well as leaving his wife, he left two magnificent young men, both brought up in Catholicism. They were struggling with its application in their modern lives so I gave them each a copy of Alexander's book in memory of their father. Their comments indicated that they found it extremely helpful and 'why weren't we exposed to this before?". I hope many, many people find out the same thing for themselves. I also hope 'Heart and Mind' may give birth to many communities inspired to live the depth of the Christian mystery in the 21st century. And for those 'seekers' without a spiritual world-view, 'Heart and Mind' may be the means by which they discover one. Joy Ryan-Bloore, Jungian Analyst, Christchurch New Zealand.
