This book engages the reader in being open to the realities of walking with Jesus in life, with an emphasis on the kingdom as his rule in our lives today. Rather than a mystical Christ, this book recognizes that the Jesus of history is the actual Christ of faith, giving substance to what it means to walk with him amid the pluralism of our times. Just as the body gives visibility to one's personality, so the company of believers are called "the body of Christ" and make Jesus visible in and to society. Faith engages the reality of Jesus. It doesn't just talk about him; it calls us to think with him and not just about him.
