About this listen

The day after Jesus' death, whatever small mark he made on the world seemed destined to disappear. Instead, his impact on human history has been unparalleled, leading believers and nonbelievers alike to ask, Who Is This Man?

In Who Is This Man, bestselling author John Ortberg explores the paradox of Jesus, history's most familiar figure while simultaneously the man no one knows. Who Is This Man traces Jesus' incredible life and legacy from his days on Earth to the present moment, showing us:

  • How his vision of life continues to haunt and challenge humanity
  • The ways his influence has inspired movements in art, science, government, medicine, and education
  • How his lessons about dignity, compassion, forgiveness, and hope continue to influence humanity

Join John Ortberg as he shares how Jesus' influence has swept over history and how his vision of life continues to impact us today.

Critic reviews

"Sometimes in the clutter and noise of 'religion,' we lose sight of who Jesus is. Once again, John Ortberg helps us do what he does best: he helps us see God as he really is and connect with him amid all the noise. This book is a gift."—Dr. Henry Cloud, psychologist, coauthor of the bestselling Boundaries books

"We live in a period where the divide between the secular and the sacred has never been greater. Who Is This Man? bridges this gap by sharing in his inimitable and entertaining style the undeniable and profound impact of Jesus Christ on our world. His impact, over two thousand years later, is more profound on the day-to-day lives of people—believers or not—than the impact of any other person at any point in history. John shows how Christ came to teach us how to live and in the process changed the world forever and for good."—Ron Johnson, CEO, J. C. Penney

An eye opener!

This book should be on the reading list for schools. It is brilliantly presented, an easy read and yet it takes you through the most important and challenging facts about Jesus.

Disappointing in the extreme

Sadly, I cannot rate this book highly. I feel that rather than exalting Christ Jesus it overall left me thinking when is the author going to raise Jesus up to whom He truly is....the only begotten Son of God. The author yes lifted Him to being a different teacher having different impact but little more. Indeed whilst there were some thoughtful points especially about Jesus treatment of women, it fell way short. I profess I could not finish this book, I asked myself the question " does this work elevate and extol Jesus Christ, does this work enrich my understanding, will this work pass into history as a work that should be kept and reread? Unequivocally it does not. Maybe further in the author lifts Christ to be beyond a great teacher I hope he did, for without the absolute identity of whom Jesus is and why He came incarnate Son of God to redeem the whole of creation then it is of little use to anyone for it denigrates Christ Jesus. Alarm bells rang from the beginning " forget about the divinity of Jesus"...this one sentence should to discerning ears tell you everything you need to know.
