Customer Reviews
influential guide to nonviolence in the words & works of JC
Since reading this book in university thirty years ago I have not forgotten it and its impact is undimmed. With clarity and simplicity the author lays out the case for a nonviolent/ahimsa understanding of the political implications of the teachings and actions of Jesus. Walter Wink readers will know it; others should.
Why did I take so long to read this?
I love this. It is a significant work and a stimulating read. There is much to ponder here about the social and political reality of Jesus then and now. Christians of many persuasions will be challenged, enriched and encouraged by Yoder's presentation of Jesus.
