Description:

“The world’s leading New Testament scholar.” —NewsweekIn the tradition of C. S. Lewis’s Mere Christianity and his own classic book Simply Christian, N. T. Wright invokes 200 years of Biblical scholarship to show us how we should best retell the story of Jesus today. For believers confronting the challenge of connecting with their faith today, and for readers of Timothy Keller’s The Reason for God, Wright offers a provocative new picture of how to understand who Jesus was and how we should relate to him today.
