Radical Jesus |
|
Radical Jesus is a straightforward, dramatic, revelatory retelling of the story of Jesus in Mark's Gospel. Jesus appears exactly as he appeared to his contemporaries, and to his first followers, as an exceptional, highly original, champion of the values of the poor, developing and alternative faith lifestyle at the bottom of society, and forming a community of followers whom he taught to act with his own freedom and committment, which he called Kingdom of God. Radical Jesus argues that Jesus still today represents
a significant and potentially worldchanging sytle and method, whereby
real change can be pioneered by groups of committed entreprenuerial
disciples, following Jesus's Way. Our twenty-first century contexts
of social, cultural, and political choices evoke Jesus as Alternative,
Guru, Master, Blasphemer, Politicina, and Journey Downward. |
