Understanding Jesus: Christology from Emmaus to Today

Understanding Jesus fills a significant gap in introductory textbooks on Christology. Although most books focus on the biblical data or contemporary contributions to the interpretation of Jesus, Understanding Jesus moves with ease through biblical material, Christological councils, and contemporary debates, and it even addresses the issues of religious pluralism and Christology--all while maintaining a faith-friendly perspective that is hospitable to readers of a wide range of faith convictions. Sidebars, charts, reflection questions, suggestions for further reader, and a glossary further enhance accessibility.
