<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Jesus without Borders brings together select theologians and biblical scholars from various parts of the world to discuss the significance of Jesus in their respective contexts.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Though the makeup of the church worldwide has undeniably shifted south and east over the past few decades, very few theological resources have taken account of these changes. Jesus without Borders - the first volume in the emerging Majority World Theology series - begins to remedy that lack, bringing together select theologians and biblical scholars from various parts of the world to discuss the significance of Jesus in their respective contexts. Offering an excellent glimpse of contemporary global, evangelical dialogue on the person and work of Jesus, this volume epitomizes the best Christian thinking from the Majority World in relation to Western Christian tradition and Scripture. The contributors engage throughout with historic Christian confessions - especially the Creed of Chalcedon - and unpack their continuing relevance for Christian teaching about Jesus today.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Different societies vary in exactly how they understand Christ's gospel message in terms of their own culture. The rewarding essays in Jesus without Borders offer an impressively wide-ranging survey of those diverse responses and understandings of Christology. Provocative and interesting." Philip Jenkins Baylor University "This book provides all of us with a kind of stereophonic listening to one another across the cultures that shape us but should not de ne us as Christians. The whole Majority World Theology series promises to be a refreshingly reciprocal contribution to global theology." Christopher J. H. Wright Langham Partnership "A well-written and much-needed book. Through these essays the reader travels around the world and gets a flavor of the rich theological ferment under way in world Christianity." Emmanuel Katongole University of Notre Dame "Provides an important invitation. . . . Each chapter's response to Jesus' question 'Who do you say I am?' offers a slightly different perspective on how Christians around the world answer that question. Jesus without Borders helps us take seriously the global nature of Christian faith and practice." Juan Francisco Martínez Fuller Theological Seminary "Christianity is rapidly expanding in the Majority World, which is playing more and more a part in the faith's ongoing theological development. . . . We are privileged to have this collection of essays as a guide to what we may expect to see in the years to come." Gerald Bray Beeson Divinity School<br>
