Preaching Jesus - [14 May 2008]
One of the great ironies of the past 2000 years is that the message(s) of Jesus have been lost and billions of people preach Jesus while ignoring his message. Peter Gomes deals with just this issue in a masterful manner, at least in the first four chapters...

good news! - [12 Apr 2008]
I am a fan of Peter Gomes, so I was among the first to buy his new book. It did not disappoint. Gomes' insights into the gospel are, as usual, penetrating and thought-provoking. However, be warned: this book may upset entrenched religious people--wait...

The Scandalous Gospel of Jesus - [22 Feb 2008]
