Showcasing some of his most enduring and insightful writings, including many recently unpublished works, a concise and illuminating launch to Marcus J. Borg, the overdue spokesman for intensifying Christianity and one of the most revered and important theologians of our time. In his acclaimed books, including classics such as Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time, The Heart of Christianity, Speaking Christian, and Convictions, Marcus J. Borg helped condition an enlightened modernist view of Christianity. A leading scholar of the historical Jesus acclaimed for his ability to speak about Christianity in the framework of contemporary world, Borg offered deep wisdom and inspiration - a new way of seeing and living the Christian life - for believers, students, and lay down listeners. In the long run, he taught us that by developing a deeper understanding of Jesus and the brand new Testament, we can locate a more traditional way to be. Yet Borg himself was always aware of a greater real truth beyond what he could make clear: the wonder of God. Now, two years following the liberal theologian's death, comes The Days and nights of Awe and Surprise, an array of his writing, including many never before published works, that explores the Christian trust and what it means to be always a Christian in the 21st hundred years. Provocative and uplifting, this anthology illuminates Borg's explorations of the miraculous and wonderful, his understanding of conviction and fulfillment, and his contention that we must keep an wide open mind and question assumptions and certainties in every our religious journeys.
