Seeking the Identity of Jesus

<DIV><BR /> In view of the proliferation of conflicting images of Jesus in the church in the academy and in popular culture it is no wonder that his identity sometimes appears more elusive than ever.<I>Seeking the Identity of Jesus</I> brings together an interdisciplinary group of leading scholars -- from the fields of biblical studies theology and church history -- to focus on the complex problems surrounding the quest for the historical Jesus. Their perspectives are richly informed by Scripture testimony from the church's past and experience of the risen Jesus in the present.<BR /><BR /><B>Contributors:</B><BR /><BR /> Dale C.
