Welcome to Litsy!

�There is no writer in the evangelical world that I admire and appreciate more.� Billy Graham Philip Yancey helps reveal what two thousand years of history covered up What happens when a respected Christian journalist decides to put his preconceptions aside and take a long look at the Jesus described in the Gospels? How does the Jesus of the New Testament compare to the �new, rediscovered� Jesus�or even the Jesus we think we know so well? Philip Yancey offers a new and different perspective on the life of Christ and his work�his teachings, his miracles, his death and resurrection�and ultimately, who he was and why he came. From the manger in Bethlehem to the cross in Jerusalem, Yancey presents a complex character who generates questions as well as answers; a disturbing and exhilarating Jesus who wants to radically transform your life and stretch your faith. The Jesus I Never Knew uncovers a Jesus who is brilliant, creative, challenging, fearless, compassionate, unpredictable, and ultimately satisfying. �No one who meets Jesus ever stays the same,� says Yancey. �Jesus has rocked my own preconceptions and has made me ask hard questions about why those of us who bear his name don�t do a better job of following him.�
