On Being a Disciple of the Crucified Nazarene: Unpublished Lectures and Sermons

He makes clear the relevance of the biblical message to human existence even today. In the second half he explores how themes relating to specific contemporary problems fulfill that message. / Here is a theologian who is radically and passionately committed to discipleship of the crucified Jesus of Nazareth -- and who is not afraid to share that commitment.
