Reviews
Here is a room full of forgotten stories about what it once meant to follow Jesus. Some are so strange that they tell me what a stranger I have become to my own faith. Others are so compelling that they refresh my sense of what this faith asks of me., This book is a work of genius. You are about to read a book that possesses the potential to rewrite history., "This book is a work of genius. You are about to read a book that possesses the potential to rewrite history." -- Sue Monk Kidd, bestselling author of The Dance of the Dissident Daughter and The Secret Life of Bees "Here is a room full of forgotten stories about what it once meant to follow Jesus. Some are so strange that they tell me what a stranger I have become to my own faith. Others are so compelling that they refresh my sense of what this faith asks of me." -- Barbara Brown Taylor, author of Holy Envy "With a prose cool, clear, and crisp, a tone positive, powerful, and persuasive, and a vision confident, collective, and collegial, After Jesus Before Christianity is good news, truth, and joy--as Christianity itself should always be." -- John Dominic Crossan, author of The Birth of Christianity and Jesus: A Revolutionary Biography "Tracing the early history of Christianity from Jesus to Constantine, this book serves as an excellent preparation for the emergence of Christendom. Its timing is auspicious, given the current confusion in America about the definition of Christianity and the relations between Christianity, culture, and society." -- Burton L. Mack, author of The Lost Gospels "Well-conceived, well-organized, honestly and bravely argued. It provokes consideration of what persistently haunts us as moderns." -- Vincent L. Wimbush, Director of the Institute for Signifying Scriptures "After Jesus Before Christianity describes a time of widespread resistance to violence and oppression in the ancient world while also providing models of hope for modern day seekers of justice and wholesome spirituality." -- Chebon Kernell, executive secretary of Native American and Indigenous Ministries, United Methodist Church "A ground-breaking, truth-telling account of the development of early Christianity, a must read and will have implications for generations." -- Liz Theoharis, director of the Kairos Center for Religions, Rights, and Social Justice at Union Theological Seminary "There have always been Jesus people who challenged the assumptions of Empire and created refuge for the oppressed. This noble effort to uncover movements that were silenced reminds me of the saints who sing, 'I know Jesus for myself.'" -- Bishop William J. Barber, II, President of Repairers of the Breach and author, We Are Called To Be A Movement
Synopsis
From the creative minds of the scholarly group behind the groundbreaking Jesus Seminar comes this provocative and eye-opening look at the roots of Christianity that offers a thoughtful reconsideration of the first two centuries of the Jesus movement, transforming our understanding of the religion and its early dissemination. Christianity has endured for more than two millennia and is practiced by billions worldwide today. Yet that longevity has created difficulties for scholars tracing the religion's roots, distorting much of the historical investigation into the first two centuries of the Jesus movement. But what if Christianity died in the fourth or fifth centuries after it began? How would that change how historians see and understand its first two hundred years? Considering these questions, three Bible scholars from the Westar Institute summarize the work of the Christianity Seminar and its efforts to offer a new way of thinking about Christianity and its roots. Synthesizing the institute's most recent scholarship--bringing together the many archaeological and textual discoveries over the last twenty years--they have found: There were multiple Jesus movements, not a singular one, before the fourth century There was nothing called Christianity until the third century There was much more flexibility and diversity within Jesus's movement before it became centralized in Rome, not only regarding the Bible and religious doctrine, but also understandings of gender, sexuality and morality. Exciting and revolutionary, After Jesus Before Christianity provides fresh insights into the real history behind how the Jesus movement became Christianity. After Jesus Before Christianity includes more than a dozen black-and-white images throughout., From the creative minds of the scholarly group behind the groundbreaking Jesus Seminar comes this provocative and eye-opening look at the roots of Christianity that offers a thoughtful reconsideration of the first two centuries of the Jesus movement, transforming our understanding of the religion and its early dissemination.
