As a twenty-three-year-old singer and the soon-to-be wife of youth pastor Joshua Harris, nothing in Shannon Harris's secular upbringing prepared her to enter the world of conservative Christianity. Soon Joshua's bestselling book I Kissed Dating Goodbye helped inspire a national purity movement, and Shannon's identity became "pastor's wife."

Dès les premières pages, Benoît XVI présente Jésus comme un roi de la Paix, de la simplicité et des pauvres. Jésus n'est pas un révolutionnaire politique, il ne vient pas comme destructeur, il ne se fonde pas sur la violence, il ne déclenche pas d'insurrection militaire contre Rome; il vient avec le don de la guérison, il se consacre à ceux qui sont marginalisés. Son pouvoir est différent : c'est dans la pauvreté de Dieu, dans la Paix de Dieu que réside son seul pouvoir salvifique. Pour la première fois dans l'histoire, un pape en fonction publie un ouvrage à titre personnel.
