Jesus : The Life Teachings, And Relevance Of A Religious Revolutionary
$20.99Add to cartIn this major book on the historical Jesus, Marcus J. Borg shows how the Gospel portraits of Jesus, historically seen, make sense. Borg takes into account all the recent developments in historical Jesus scholarship, as well as new theories on who Jesus was and how the Gospels reflect that.
In doing so, he discovers Jesus can continue to inspire, inform and guide those who have moved beyond archaic doctrines, arguing that there is a movement in the church today that is catching up with where scholarship has brought us in understanding Christian origins. Readers will find an historically accurate Jesus, but one who is still worth following.
