Jesus the Great Philosopher: Rediscovering the Wisdom Needed for the Good Life Tapa blanda - 2020

Descripción de contraportada

"Deep and wide, informative and accessible, challenging and humane"

Popular teacher and New Testament scholar Jonathan Pennington helps us recover the lost biblical image of Jesus as the one true philosopher. Jesus teaches us what is good, right, and beautiful and offers answers to life's big questions.

"Pennington is exactly the kind of pastor-theologian we need more of. He invites ordinary learners to sit at the feet of the most extraordinary philosopher. Jesus the Philosopher is concerned not merely with our dying and eternal state but with our living--and with our abundant living, at that."
--Jen Wilkin, author and Bible teacher

"I wish I had been introduced to Jesus the Great Philosopher much earlier in life. It would have saved me from much struggle and error. Deep and wide, informative and accessible, challenging and humane--this is a book that will help you not only to think better but to live better too."
--Karen Swallow Prior, author of On Reading Well and Fierce Convictions

"This book, written by one of the most brilliant biblical scholars of this generation, makes a compelling case for Jesus as Lord, as Savior, and as Philosopher. This book addresses the mind, the heart, the soul, and the life. That's why it's the book we need right now."
--Russell Moore, president, The Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention

"Pennington's research and writing are a true gift to the church. With the uncovering of ancient truths and the discovery of ageless practices, you will be motivated to love Jesus for all he is--the beginning and the end, the philosopher for all of life."
--Kyle Idleman, bestselling author of Not a Fan, Grace Is Greater, and Don't Give Up

"Pennington gives us a Jesus-directed introduction to many of life's most profound questions."
--Trevin Wax, LifeWay Christian Resources; author of Rethink Your Self and This Is Our Time
