book cover


On almost any measure, Jesus has been the most influential human being ever to have lived.

But is the time of his influence coming to an end? Does Jesus have a future in the secular West in the 21st century?



Who was Jesus? Can we believe in his miracles? If Jesus announced the coming of the Kingdom of God, why are we still waiting? Was he a failed prophet or a religious genius? And does it matter?

The intelligent and thought-provoking answers Peter Jensen provides in this book will challenge non-Christian readers to look again at the person of Jesus, and will greatly strengthen the confidence and faith of those who already love and serve Christ.
