Jesus

Two thousand years ago Jesus asked his followers, “Who do you say that I am?” This question has been asked continually since. One response today might follow from another place where he said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” Really? How might Jesus map our way, guide us to truth, and chart the path of life for us, especially two thousand years removed, in a time of fake news, dis- and mis-information, and climate change? This book is a christological cartography that unveils how Jesus maps authentic human feeling, encourages the pursuit of inquiry that leads to truth about ourselves and our world, and invites our common witness to those we often otherwise otherize. If we are struggling to flourish and thrive amid the challenges of our rapidly changing and polarizing twenty-first-century world, Jesus may still be a meaningful, reliable, and even surprising guide for late modern peoples.
