“Garry Wills brings his signature brand of erudite, unorthodox thinking to his latest book of revelations. . . . A tour de force and a profound show of faith.” (O, the Oprah Magazine)
Look out for a fresh book from Garry Wills, What The Qur'an Meant, coming fall 2017.
In what exactly are billed “culture wars,” people on the political right and the political left cite Jesus as endorsing their views. However in this New York Times-bestselling masterpiece, Garry Wills argues that Jesus subscribed to no political program. He was a lot more radical than that. In a brand new reading of the gospels, Wills explores this is of the “reign of heaven” Jesus not only promised for the future but brought with him into this life. It is merely by dodges and evasions that folks misrepresent what Jesus plainly had to say against power, the wealthy, and religion itself. But Wills is just as critical of these who make Jesus a mere ethical teacher, ignoring or playing down his divinity. An illuminating analysis for believers and nonbelievers alike, What Jesus Meant is an excellent addition to our national conversation on religion.
