Jesus the Saviour: The Meaning of Jesus Christ for Christian Faith

Jesus the Saviour: The Meaning of Jesus Christ for Christian Faith

by WilliamC.Placher (Author)

Synopsis

In contrast to the perspective taken in many popular books on the historical Jesus, the Christian tradition does not offer a boring, safe Jesus who can be studied from a distance and needs only to be placed in his historical context. Instead, William Placher argues that Jesus is one who radically challenges the way we understand the world and how we live our lives.
