"This is the most refreshing look at the Gospels that I have seen since seminary over 35 years ago. My faith has been invigorated and renewed. Quadratos is a profound work and a breath of fresh air for Christianity that gives hope for the Gospels' message in this century."
—Rev. JeanAnne Swope, Interim Presbytery Executive, Presbyterian Church (USA), retired
“With many books today based on Jesus and a narrow view of history, this work on the gospels is breathtakingly liberating. The writings recover a great tradition of interpretation—freeing the gospels from a narrow historicism and giving the texts inner meaning and practical wisdom for today.”
—The Reverend Alan Jones, Dean, Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, author of Seasons of Grace and Reimagining Christianity
“This work will revolutionize the way we understand the gospels. Rather than seeking out the historical Jesus, Dr. Shaia gives us the golden thread that transforms the four gospels into a seamless story. Quadratos is a wise treasure trove for everyday life. The chapter on John is brilliant—opening the heart wide to love.”
—Rev. Roché Vermaak, Associate Pastor to Christian Education
Brentwood Presbyterian Church, Los Angeles
“…speaks to the heart, bringing the gospels to our daily lives.”
— Rev. Brendalyn Batchelor, Minister
