This is a riveting book with bite, an exploration with edginess. Compelling and arresting images confront us with a fresh view of Jesus--and of ourselves, as we rediscover our vocation to be "Another Christ" for troubled times. Recent research into the first-century setting of the gospel and the author's years in the Holy Land cast unexpected light on both the identity of Jesus and our present calling, while Francis of Assisi reveals how this can be creatively lived out.We have a choice. If we keep before our eyes images of Christ that are comforting, soothing, familiar, traditional--then our Christian life may turn out to be prosaic, pedestrian, and predictable, a preservative to maintain the status quo. But if we allow our discipleship today to be unsettled and inspired by images of Christ that are dynamic, risky, outrageous, brave, passionate, radical--then we open ourselves to new possibilities: we embark on a liberating adventure, an odyssey of the soul, a pilgrimage, a voyage into untested waters. What will we choose? Do we dare to take the unpredictable path? And which route will respond most courageously to the needs of today's wounded world?mehr
