Jesus the Crucified People

<p>A deeply moving and challenging book <i>Jesus the Crucified People</i> breaks a theological stranglehold on the figure of Jesus and glimpses in a new non-Western way both Jesus and Christianity.</p><p>Against the rich cultural background of Asia Song's volume explores the mystery of the Word that from the beginning of time now comes poignantly to us in the stories and testimonies of women men and children. Song eloquently fashions a people hermeneutic to sketch an account of Jesus' life ministry death and resurrection for our world today.</p><p>This much-hailed volume anchors Song's monumental trilogy the Cross in the Lotus World which also includes <i>Jesus and the Reign of God</i> (1993) and <i>Jesus in the Power of the Spirit</i> (1994) also published by Fortress Press.</p>
