Asking the Father tries to come to grips with some of the questions and difficulties which can arise for critically minded believers when they stop to ask what they are doing when they ask God for favours.
Take Nothing for the Journey - Meditations on Time and Place
Take Nothing for the Journey is a record of three months spent living in a tent in different parts of Ireland, all places that held significance for Donagh O'Shea. After 10 busy years working in a retreat centre, he needed to get away from maps of the spiritual journey, for maps can never be substitutes for the real journey, the journey to God.
Go Down to the Potter's House - A Journey into Meditation
A book to be experienced rather than just read. There is a lesson in every line and the attentive reader will come away not only enlightened, but ultimately transformed.
Go Down to the Potter's House is the story of the first 'Potter' retreat/ workshops developed by Donagh O'Shea some 30 years ago.
These workshops combine meditation and simple meditative work with clay. The aim is to help overcome the effects of centuries of introspection and individualism and to discover in ourselves and in the Gospel a straightforward simplicity.
Faith Questions: Searching for meaning and hope
The conversations in this book reveal some of the anger, the sadness, the disaffection of ordinary people in today's Church, as well as their enduring search for hope and meaning.
The Way of the Cross
Illustrations by Maria Del Zamora
The Way of the Cross offers reflections on the fourteen traditional stopping-places or stations which mark out a path by which Christians may walk in the footsteps of Jesus, identifying themselves spiritually with him.
Included in part two is a resource for more leisurely reflection on each station providing scriptural texts, and it brings us into the company of saints and mystics who have travelled this path before us.
