Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time: The Historical Jesus and the Heart of Contemporary Faith
by Marcus J. Borg
$14.95 Paperback
In Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time, Marcus Borg writes that “believing in Jesus does not mean believing doctrines about him. Rather, it means to give one's heart, one's self at its deepest level, to . . . the living Lord." Drawing on his own journey from a naive, unquestioning belief in Christ through collegiate skepticism to a mature and contemporary Christian faith, Borg illustrates how an understanding of the historical Jesus can actually lead to a more authentic Christian life – one not rooted in creeds or dogma, but in a life of spiritual challenge, compassion, and community.
