A Different Jesus
A Christian Theology Big Enough for an Interfaith World
by Jan G. Linn
- In his bold new book A Different Jesus: A Christian Theology Big Enough for an Interfaith World, Jan Linn presents an eye-opening perspective on the place of Jesus and Christianity in a changing world. As he examines the meaning of Jesus' death and resurrection, Linn reveals that a welcoming Christianity, one that does not claim to be the only means of salvation, is not only possible, but grounded in scripture. As our multicultural, interfaith world continues to grow smaller, Linn's insight offers a way for Christians to be firm in their own faith while lovingly embracing our brothers and sisters of different faiths.
