The
Cartoon Gospel of John: A Serious Commentary
with Visual Parables
Author/Editor:
William P. Anderson, Richard L. Diesslin
Publisher: ACTA Publications
Order No:
Retail Price: $12.95
Publisher website: www.actapublications.com
Audience : Youth - Adults
Medium: Book
Book
Description: Jesus of Nazareth used parables
(memorable stories that convey a greater
meaning) to teach to his apostles and the
crowds that gathered to hear him. The Cartoon
Gospel of John uses cartoons as \"visual
parables\" to accomplish a similar
objective-to bring out the sublime meaning of
the Gospel of John in a humorous yet memorable
way. Combined with erudite and insightful
commentary, this book provides a serious yet
concise understanding of the Gospel of John
for those beginning a study of the Bible,
while also giving some compelling insights and
perspectives for those who have studied the
Bible for years. The four-color cartoons
throughout make this an excellent resource for
high school and college religion courses in
particular. The authors refrain from an
overabundance of technical terms and
references to make the book accessible for all
readers.

Thought-provoking and understandable, Scott M.
Lewis, S.J., breaks the Gospel of John down
into manageable sections with commentary vital
to new and returning readers. Using
themes from John\'s prologue to provide a
focus, Lewis encourages his readers to
question and ponder, rather than gloss over,
this deceptively simple text.

Johannine Letters offers a brief commentary,
incorporating recent scholarship, with a
general approach. Ideally suited for
Bible study groups as well as individual
reflection, it is accessible to a broad range
of people.

Retail Price: $18.95
Publisher website: www.paulistpress.com
Audience: Adults
Medium: Book
Book Description:
Meditations on the Gospel of John by one of
the great spiritual writers of our time. Jean
Vanier celebrates the gospel of John in his
highly anticipated latest work, Drawn into the
Mystery of Jesus through the Gospel of John.
Thoroughly personal and inspiring, Drawn into
the Mystery challenges all Christians to
encounter the fullness of life lived in close
communion with God. Vanier writes: “These
insights that I share in this book come from
the life of Jesus in me . . . They also flow
from my life with people who are weak and who
have taught me to welcome Jesus from the place
of the poverty in me. ”Jean Vanier was a
friend and influential mentor to the late
Henri Nouwen. Toward the end of his life,
Nouwen left Harvard to live and work at one of
Jean Vanier’s L’Arche communities. This
was perhaps the most profound experience of
Christianity Nouwen experienced. The thought
and spiritual direction/discipleship of Jean
Vanier is available to all in Drawn into the Mystery of Jesus–through the Gospel of
John.

insight and food for thought to:—scholars
and students of theology and
scripture.—persons desiring more in-depth
knowledge of this Gospel.

University. He is the author of numerous books
