John: Gospel for a New Age delivers a unique understanding of the
Good News. Author Leonard Doohan calls John’s Gospel a
challenging and refreshing foundational document for Christian faith
because it calls to a deep mysticism and avoids the clutter of petty laws
and power struggles so typical
of inauthentic religion. John’s Gospel has always been characterized
as coming from the fruits of
reflection and deep prayer, and it cannot be comprehended unless one
enters into a deep mystical
state. The author aids the reader in entering this spiritual state required to
truly know John’s
Gospel of Christ.
