The Future of Jesus
Peter JensenPaperback 2008-06-01
Each year the ABC invites a prominent Australian to present the results of his or her work and thinking on major social, scientific or cultural issues in the series of radio talks known as the Boyer Lectures. In 2005 the Boyer Lecturer was the highly newsworthy Anglican Archbishop of Sydney Peter Jensen. This book is the transcript of those lectures. An urbane and thoughtful communicator, Dr Jensen offers compelling answers to questions currently being posed by both Christian believers and those outside the churches. What is the future of Jesus in the secular west? Is he passing into history? What future did Jesus himself envisage? He predicted the coming of God's kingdom - what was it it and did it come? Dr Jensen re-evaluates Jesus Christ and provocatively tweaks our culturally or religiously based assumptions about what he stands for.
