Explores Jesus Christ's life and impact on humanity

The collaboration of Richard A. Burridge (Den of King's College, London, England) and Graham Gould (former Lecturer in Theology and Religious Studies, King's College, London, England), Jesus Now And Then explores Jesus Christ's life and impact on humanity. Beginning with the New Testament, Jesus Now And Then examines early church debates, manners in which Jesus has been portrayed throughout history, the context of current questions and controversies about Jesus, and much more. A seminal account as accessible to lay people as it is to serious students and theologians, Jesus Now And Then strives to truly understand what history and religion alike have to tell us about Jesus. A superbly researched account that also traces perception and understanding of Jesus' legacy up to the modern day.
