Jesus left behind no writings, autobiography, or soul-searching diary to help us understand his life and work; to know him, we rely on the accounts of his friends, which were shared, collected, and shaped after his death. In this introduction to the life of Jesus, Steve Mueller helps us explore the Gospels in an effort to understand the extraordinary life of this first-century Jew from an obscure village in Roman Palestine

Shaping a Gospel Spirituality: A Practical Guide offers thoughts, inspiration, reflection and practical ideas you can use today in your catechetical ministry. The goal of this booklet is to encourage you to use the Gospels as the primary source for shaping your own discipleship spirituality, that is, your response to God’s presence in you and your life that is the foundation for your vision and vocation as a Christian. A discipleship spirituality demands adopting Jesus’ worldview as our own (the challenge of conversion) and then sharing that worldview with others (the challenge of evangelization).
Thus we focus on how each Gospel writer:
• portrayed Jesus so that his words and deeds became the primary example of Christian living
• portrayed the disciples as positive and negative examples of the many possible ways of responding and following Jesus
• and so indicated ways for their communities to faithfully follow Jesus in the daily situations in which they found themselves.

Shaping a Gospel Spirituality: A Practical Guide

Thirty-year-old Roger marks time by the gradual shifting of sunlight and shadows outside his Toronto high-rise apartment. As a freelance columnist, he makes about as much money as a twelve-year-old with a lawn-mowing business. With all his hopes riding on the novel he started eight years ago, Roger is clearly not in a hurry to do anything except dodge life’s ups and downs as much as he can. While nurturing a crush on the cute girl at the local coffee shop, Roger notices a leaflet on the table advertising a psychic demonstration. Intrigued, he bribes three caffeine-loving buddies to accompany him to the show featuring Anya Dreamchaser, psychic extraordinaire. Anya turns out to be a fake, but the real surprise comes when Roger’s friend Karl begins displaying his own shockingly accurate psychic abilities. As the friends come to terms with what they have witnessed, they each embark on bizarre personal journeys of enlightenment that take one of them straight into a weird New Age cult and another into a confrontation with a maniacal Scottish churchman. Crystal Balls is a comic tale about the adventures—and misadventures—of four friends who unwittingly change their lives forever after making the fateful decision to step out of their ordinary lives into an extraordinary psychic world.
