For the last ten years scholars such as Marcus Borg, John Dominic Crossan, and Luke Timothy Johnson have dominated the popular conversation about the nature of Jesus of Nazareth. In the process, the historical figure known as Jesus has been repeatedly separated from the Christ of faith, worshipped in the Christian tradition. This practice, however, is not new. The Gospel writers themselves sometimes misrepresented Jesus in order to further their own particular understandings or agendas. Consequently, writes Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer, Christianity, both in content and actual practice, is radically

In the twenty-first century, Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution remain at the center of religious controversy. More than any scientific discovery, his work seems to challenge world religions and cause ordinary religious people to confront their own core values. With all we know about his ideas on geology and biology, we know much less about Darwin’s own journey of faith. In Darwin’s Religious Odyssey, William Phipps uses newly available material to explore the evolution of Darwin’s religious outlook. It is a fascinating faith odyssey, because it mirrors the struggles

First published in hardcover in 1991, Robert Fowler’s Let the Reader Understand was ahead of its time. Using reader-response criticism, a pioneering method for reading the Gospel of Mark, he invited contemporary readers to participate actively in making the meaning of the Gospel. Ten years later, the importance of this methodology is clear to all. In Let the Reader Understand Fowler provides clues to the rhetorical strategies used in Mark, and asks the reader to be attentive to the ways in which the narrative weaves its spell. He also demonstrates how the narrative provides both directio
