He approaches the Bible with the desire to hear what God is saying to him personally through the Word. And since he approaches the Bible with that intention he is not disappointed. For centuries people have come to the Bible for spiritual counsel. If that is our intention it will deliver. Mulholland says it well on page 42: "spiritual reading has more to do with approach than with content..." One of the key quotations in the book for me is found on page 38: "In New Testament times (there was) a concept of logos or "word" as the shaping, organizing, forming principle of the universe that held everything together and directed its course..." This word shapes us in and through the words of the Bible.I like Mulholland's emphasis on letting the Biblical text master you, as opposed to trying to master and control the text. It is a very different kind of reading than that to which we are accustomed. I think Mulholland summarizes his approach to the Bible in the following line on page 104: "God's relationship with humanity is not structured by legal demands of a distant deity but by the intimacy of a personal relationship."-Amos Smith (author of Healing The Divide: Recovering Christianity's Mystic Roots) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ shaped by the word *by H***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 24, 2012* glad, in fact, very glad to rate this book and comment on dr mulholland. he first of all was in the navy...i was in the marines we had differences [a funny]. i got to know him at lakewood retreat and conference center in donaldson indiana at a five day academy earlier. i found him to be absolutely a life changing force, a dynamic and extravagant christian man, and wonderfully compelling. the book is a grand work, i now have 2 copies of which i can only find the latest as i think one of my bible study buddies now has an addition to his library unconciously of course. dr mulholland is in a very real sense along the lines of william willoman, robert snaze, and author and bishop mike coyner as a lecturer on biblical subject matter and this book reflects that boldly. elizabeth cannom was his compliment at the academy and was a marvelous inspiration. would not be fair not to mention her as well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am a word, shaped by THE Word.... *by L***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 1, 2017* "I am a word, shaped by THE Word, God breathed...."I found the book very compelling and encouraging. At the author's invitation to read Scripture formationally rather than functionally, I was inspired to write a poem I named THE WORD. Reflecting on Mulholland's idea that not only are we shaped by the word, we become the living word of God I began to ponder the Genesis 1-2 story along with John 1 and Psalm 139. We are more than a word on a page, we are God breathed, small incarnations of Him in the world. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/9672874-shaped-by-the-word-the-power-of-scripture-in-spiritual](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/9672874-shaped-by-the-word-the-power-of-scripture-in-spiritual) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
