Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The name of Jesus is everywhere. It is spoken in prayers and whispered in worship. It is shouted in traffic as a curse. People admire him, reject him, mock him, and die for him - but almost no one is neutral about him.Why?Why, two thousand years on, does this one name still change the temperature of a room? We welcome every other god to the table. We grant our easy tolerance to Buddha, to Allah, to the vague benevolent universe. Only this name tightens the air. Only this name, of all the holy names in the world, has been turned into a curse. And why do so many who are sure they know Jesus know only a familiar image - one shaped by culture, by habit, by their own quiet assumptions?In Jesus Is Not Safe, Arthur A. Tiger invites you to look again at the person of Jesus Christ: not as a safe religious symbol or a comfortable moral teacher, but as the man who turned lives upside down, who made a claim no teacher would dare to make, who died under a curse and would not stay dead, and who still demands a response from everyone who meets him.This book will not make him safe. It will do something better. If you think you already know Jesus, prepare to meet him again.
