Liberal attacks on the doctrine of the divinity of Christ have led evangelicals to rightly affirm the centrality of Jesus's divine nature for his person and work. At times, however, this defense of orthodoxy has led some to neglect Christ's full humanity. To counteract this oversight, theologian Bruce Ware takes readers back to the biblical text, where we meet a profoundly human Jesus who struggled with many of the same difficulties and limitations we face today. Like us, he grew in faith and wisdom, tested by every temptation common to man. And like us, he too received power for godliness through the Holy Spirit, and thus serves not only as the divine Lord to be worshiped, but also the supreme Human to be followed.

Jesus faced all the challenges that we face as humans, and yet he remained faithful to his Father through the power of the Holy Spirit. Ware helps us to explore Christ's nature and to learn, through the same Spirit, to follow in His steps.

"A book of unparalleled depth, a sense of inexplicable detail at the core of which lies the Christ erected as an Eternal Monument. From his birth to his ministry, from the Last Supper to the old cross strolled from Herod's courtroom unto Golgotha, the humanity of Christ is explicitly conveyed, imperturbably following God's plan for the restoration of the human race. "The Man Christ Jesus" is a book that is absolutely worth reading." Wilson Douce Normalien, Linguist: State University of Haiti MATESOL, MALS, AGCEC: State University of New York (SUNY), Stony Brook "A masterfully-crafted work of spiritual awakening and enlightenment." When I first heard mention of this book, I thought it would simply be another "Christian" book of which I m all too familiar. Nevertheless, I began reading not expecting to unearth any new concepts concerning Jesus Christ. To my great surprise, I have discovered a wealth of information that has deepened my understanding of several ambiguous doctrines commonly taught and accepted. Above all, it has allowed me to experience an intimacy like never before with the man who suffered and gave his life for me; an eternal sense of urgency to serve God for the endless existence that he has provided me through the veil of the flesh of the man Jesus-Christ..".

Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.

God is radically dedicated to our ongoing growth in spiritual maturity and holiness. This is both glorious and terrifying. It is glorious because the Lord of heaven and earth is for us. But it is terrifying because we are idolaters. This means that when God brings greater redemption into our lives he also brings a death sentence to our fallen desires. In love, God will do whatever it takes - even tearing us to shreds if necessary - to replace our feeble pleasures with lasting desire for himself. Sadly, in our culture two false responses to suffering have become deeply embedded in the Church: deadly dualism and shallow stoicism. Each can effectively hijack God's good purpose in suffering. Torn to Heal equips us to understand and reject these false and self-defeating approaches to suffering, and to embrace God's good purpose in our trials.
