Publisher's Summary

Christianity is in crisis, and its founder is often misunderstood and misinterpreted. This book presents the real Jesus: a rebel, a radical, and a revolutionary.

What did Jesus - the original Jesus - say about the pressing issues of his and our day? He didn't mention homosexuality but did call for the poor and marginalized to be protected and championed; he never spoke of abortion but did criticize the wealthy and complacent; he didn't side with the rulers and wealthy but did condemn those who judged and exploited others and turned their eyes away from those in need and from the cry for justice. This was Jesus the rebel, Christ the radical, who turned the world upside down and demanded that his followers do the same. Too many of those followers, tragically, seem to have misplaced that vital lesson.

The Bible from a less Literal Perspective

Rev Coren's perspectives are refreshing, to hear these days. A much less literal interpretation of the words in the Bible and in Jesus' perspectives on our current life.

The author spends a great deal of time disagreeing with the literal interpretations that most fundamentalists believe about the Bible. If you are a fundamentalist, listen to this book if only to understand the perspectives of the folks that you are damning to eternal hell. You may find they are not as far off from yours as you think? Maybe not?

As an Anglican, I enjoyed the more modernist approach to Jesus' possible opinions of day-to-day life today.

Worth listening to, and the reader does a very good job of it as well.
