Hearsay, heresy, & history.
In a world where Trump, Obama, Putin, and Lady Gaga all claim Christianity as their spiritual home, how do we understand Jesus, himself?
With wit and scholarly precision, Idiot examines Christianity’s historical development, from its ancient beginnings to its current and confounding condition. The result is a must read for anyone who’s ever wondered what Jesus was really up to, and why contemporary Christianity bears so little semblance to its namesake.
Written from a first-person perspective, Idiot plumbs the depths of American Christianity in its popular forms, examining the socio-historical forces that contributed to its development, including the Reformation, the scientific revolution, the rise of fundamentalism and democratization of religion. As evidenced by ongoing public debates, there is little consensus over the enduring question of Jesus: What, exactly, did he come to accomplish? What does he require of his followers (if anything)? And which Jesus are we speaking of when we invoke his name? With wit, wisdom and historical insight, Idiot tackles these theological questions head-on, ultimately landing on an orthodox, thoroughly engaging and reinvigorating explication of Jesus’ message.
