Radical, provocative take on Christ's life.

This isn't your traditional Sunday school lesson on Jesus. Eagleton frames the Gospels in a way that showcases Jesus as the ultimate revolutionary, aligning Him with figures like Marx. This could really resonate if you've always pictured Jesus as more rebel than passive shepherd, someone advocating for the downtrodden against the powers that be. It's a refreshing perspective that challenges conventional narratives and makes for a stimulating read.
