Summary
How does the Jesus of the New Testament compare to the Jesus we think we know so well? Join bestselling author Philip Yancey as he conducts an enlightening biblical and historical investigation into the real Jesus.
From the manger in Bethlehem to the cross in Jerusalem, Philip Yancey presents a complex character who generates questions as well as answers—a disturbing and exhilarating Jesus who wants to radically transform your life and stretch your faith.
In The Jesus I Never Knew, Yancey:
- Cuts through existing views and preconceptions of Jesus, citing experts from church history, modern history, and popular culture
- Discusses how different people and cultures view Jesus
- Dissects popular quotes about Jesus
- Points us back to the Bible
The Jesus I Never Knew will engage your heart, mind, emotions, and senses, preparing you for a new, life-changing encounter with the real Jesus described in the Gospels.
Praise for The Jesus I Never Knew:
"This is the best book about Jesus I have ever read, probably the best book about Jesus in the whole century. Yancey gently took away my blinders and blazed the trail through my own doubting fears, pious know-it-all, and critical balderdash until I saw the Savior anew and thought I heard him ask me, 'Now whom do you say that I am?' and I understood the question as I never had before."
--Lewis B. Smedes, Senior Professor, Fuller Seminary
"Philip Yancey takes the reader with him on his very personal journey to Jesus. In The Jesus I Never Knew, I became convinced that the Jesus I met--in some ways for the first time--has known me all along. This book is destined to become a favorite--to recommend to those still seeking Jesus and to pass along to those who've met him, but long to know him more."
--Elisa Morgan, President Emerita, MOPS International

Another brilliant book by Philip Yancey.
I like the honesty and openness of the author and this book helped to make clear what I've wondered about.

Insightful and thought provoking.
The title summarises my feelings about this book. I forgot that the voice I was listening to did not belong to Yancey. I am also glad to be listening to this so close to Easter. It confirms a few doubts I had about Jesus in a good way! Worth it!

a wonderful human description of Christ
If you are thinking of buying this and have not listened to the unabridged version I would recommend that you did that first.
The first thing I must say is that the quality of the recording is quite poor, although I got used to it after a while, that said it is completely fascinating, the additional 6 hours are well worth listening to.

Too much music
Would you try another book written by Philip Yancey or narrated by Bill Richards?
I cannot listen to this book. Every chapter starts with music which is played over the voice of the reader. I bought an audio book not a music album.
What did you like best about this story?
I do not know I could not use the audiobook to find out.
How could the performance have been better?
No music.
