Fresh : 21 Century Jesus
$15.49Add to cartWhat if Jesus were born in the 21st century, instead of the 1st century? Who would he choose as disciples? What challenges would he make to today’s churches? In FRESH: 21ST CENTURY JESUS, Steve Niswanger presents a “fresh” image of Jesus as He might appear in our hurried and hassled 21st-century world. By exploring some of the most well-known stories in the Gospels with information regarding the historical, political, and cultural contexts of First century Israel, the author reveals Jesus in a way that is fresh, new, clean, bright, and unspoiled. The author takes himself and the reader on a journey that imagines Jesus as if he moved on the earth in his bodily form today, just as he did in the First century. The book reaches its climax as Mr. Niswanger breaks completely into prose fiction, depicting a fascinating 21st Century Jesus interacting with 21st Century people who are analogous to the First century people with whom Jesus interacted in the Bible. This book brings Jesus “up close and personal” with our modern world and reaffirms His timeless message of mercy, grace, and salvation.
