Su questo libro

Recensione:

Johnson offers a succinct and excellent overview of middle- and late-20th century Roman Catholic Christologies, the study of Christ's person and qualities. These have been renewed by waves of emphasis upon Jesus' genuine humanity, upon Jesus' own historical context, upon liberation of the poor and oppressed, upon the equality and dignity of women, upon the truth and greatness of other religious traditions, and upon preservation of the environment. The book fairly presents a wide body of diverse theological speculation in a form which clarifies the ongoing need for new Christologies and expectantly anticipates further developments. --Library Journal

Consider Jesus shows what a systematic theologian with a gift for language can do to unveil the intricacies of Christology at a popular level. --National Catholic Reporter
