Description

The greatest teacher who ever lived, Jesus knew how to reach his audience where they were at. Whether preaching to a group in parable or holding an intimate conversation, he had an unequaled ability to get across the message that his listeners needed to hear.

His teachings in the Gospels speak no less directly to us, today. But so rich in meaning are the words of our incarnate God, so layered and profound his messages, that often we fail to do more than scratch their surface. And over time, our habit of superficial encounter with the Word can become self-perpetuating.

In Secrets from Heaven, Fr. Sebastian Walshe helps you break free from stale and familiar takes on the gospel, giving you new eyes to see and new ears to hear the inexhaustible depths of Christ’s wisdom. The Parable of the Sowers, the Good Samaritan, the Prodigal Son, the woman caught in adultery—all these and more come alive in fresh ways, revealing significant details and nuances, scriptural/historical connections, and testaments to Christ’s rhetorical and pedagogical genius that you’ve never noted before.

You’ll marvel at Jesus’ skill as an evangelist; but more importantly, you’ll be powerfully moved to faith and love just as those who heard him in person long ago.

Nothing Jesus taught was truly “secret”—he revealed the Father for all the world to see. But that doesn’t mean his revelation is simplistic. Read Secrets from Heaven and go deeper into the saving mysteries of his life and teaching.

Re-discover the parables!

What a great book! Whilst Jesus' parables may seem straightforward at times, this book dives deeper into meanings you never thought possible. You will understand more clearly what he was teaching and help you to follow his teachings in a more faithful way.

This book is an absolute Gem! It opened my mind to the infinite depths of the Sacred Scriptures and gave me a fresh perspective on the multi faceted messages contained in the parables and direct encounters with Jesus! Through this book, you too will encounter Jesus in a whole new way!

Eye Opening

Absolutely enlightening information regarding the parables of Jesus...it’s been a quick read with a new perspective on the Gospel. I gave it 4 stars because sometimes the theology comes off stale as in more rhetorical than it could be given the intimacies the author gives detailing the parables

Excellent book for somebody that wants to understand the Bible at a whole new level. I belong to a men’s group of amazing Christians and they were all very impressed with the enlightened commentary of the author. Very easy for anyone to read as well.
