What is Jesus, the image of humanity : Luke's account about?
This is an entirely fresh and original book about Jesus, the Jesus of devotion, the Jesus within. Here are fifty images of Jesus drawn from the gospels, each image constituting a chapter of the book. After a brief account of Jesus and his times, the author introduces the book and how to read it. Many of the images are conventional -- messiah, prophet, Son of God, exorcist, good shepherd, and so on -- but others have a strongly contemporary edge to them -- the wild man, the family therapist, the one who refuses to compete. The style is simple and direct, and psychologically in tune with our times. The author, Anselm Grun, has the rare gift of simple communication, of bringing Jesus alive to men and women of today. Each chapter is short enough to be used as the basis for meditation or lectio divina.
