Christ Actually: Reimagining Faith in the Modern Age

An exploration of transcendent faith in modern timesâ‚¬"from the author of the New York Timesâ‚¬â€œbestselling Constantineâ‚¬s Sword
Â
What can we believe aboutâ‚¬"and how can we believe inâ‚¬"Jesus Christ in light of the Holocaust and other atrocities of the twentieth century and the drift from religion that followed? In this urgent and provocative work, award-winning author James Carroll traces centuries of religious history and theology to face this core challenge to modern faith and to rescue it for the secular age.

Far from another book about the â‚¬Å“historical Jesus,â‚¬Â Christ Actually takes the challenges of science and contemporary philosophy, of secularism, seriously. Carroll retrieves the power of Jesus both as an answer to humanityâ‚¬s perennial longing for transcendence and as a figure of profound ordinarinessâ‚¬"his simple life, and his call to imitate him, all suggest an answer to the question â‚¬Å“What is the future of Jesus Christ?â‚¬Â This book points the way.
