This book, with its telling title, is the most compelling book about Jesus that I have ever read.”—Helen Prejean, author, Dead Man Walking

The most accurate and balanced short reconstruction of the life of the historical Jesus.”—Harvey Cox, author, A New Heaven: Death, Human Destiny, and the Kingdom of God

Nolan’s portrait of Jesus introduces us to the man as he was before he became enshrined in doctrine, dogma, and ritual, a man deeply involved with the real problems of his time—which are the real problems of our time as well. As the author says, “Nothing about Jesus will be presupposed or assumed. . . . My interest is in the man as he was before he became the object of Christian faith.
