In contrast to those whose search for the 'real' Jesus separates him from ecclesiastical texts and traditions, this collection of essays from 16 noted scholars strives to understand Christ's identity in and through the church's canon and creeds. Contributors include David Allison, Jr., Markus Bockmuehl, Katherine Grieb, Robert Jenson, and Marianne Meye Thompson. 336 pages, softcover from Eerdmans.
