Description
On almost any measure, Jesus has been the most influential human being ever to have lived.But is the time of his influence coming to an end? Does Jesus have a future in the secular West in the 21st century? In The Future of Jesus, Dr Peter Jensen, Anglican Archbishop of Sydney, challenges believers and unbelievers alike to think again about Jesus – to consider him as an historical figure whose life, death and teachings lie behind so much of our civilization, and to whom many millions still express allegiance.Who was Jesus? Can we believe in his miracles? If Jesus announced the coming of the Kingdom of God, why are we still waiting? Was he a failed prophet or a religious genius? And does it matter? Dr Jensen’s unfailingly intelligent investigation of these questions will undoubtedly provoke many to read the Gospels once more for themselves.
