Richard H. Schmidt, Dean Mosher

Richard H. Schmidt has served as a parish priest in four Episcopal dioceses. He retired recently after serving as editor and director of Forward Movement and is now a popular retreat and workshop leader. He is the author of five other books. He lives in Fairhope, Alabama. Dean Mosher's epic historic paintings are on display in museums and public building around the country, including the Smithsonian Institute, the U.S. Naval Academy, and the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. He specializes in reconstructing naval battles and air flights and rendering them on large murals. He lives and works in his home and studio in Fairhope, Alabama, which he built by hand.

"This is a book worth adding to your personal collection. It is a fabulous reference work; a map of the spiritual greats who have shaped the spirituality of the world. Accurate, informed, and interesting. The sort of book you will refer to again and again." - Ian S. Markham, Dean and President of Virginia Theological Seminary "As much an epiphany as a book. Sages, Saints, & Seers will feed your soul and inform your spirit. The story of Sages, told in vignettes, of the evolution of humanity's engagement with the Other across time, cultures, and religious contexts, is simple in its organization, accessible in its prose, and absolutely dynamic in its impact." -Phyllis Tickle, author of The Divine Hours and The Great Emergence "Sages, Saints, & Seers is impressive in its breadth and in its accessibility. Schmidt manages to take us on an engaging tour through history and across many nations to glean wisdom, insight, and inspiration from women and men of all sorts and conditions. I'm left wanting to learn more about many of these figures. Surely, that makes Schmidt's book a great success." -Scott Gunn, Executive Director, Forward Movement
