Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This long-awaited book on Jesus by the author of In Memory of Her situates ancient and contemporary discussions of Jesus the Christ within the space of the basileia--the reign, commonweal, or intended world of God. By assessing various Jesus traditions and interpretations as to whether they can engender liberating visions for today, the book seeks to challenge and transform masculine Christian identity-formations and exclusivist theological frameworks toward the basileia vision of justice and well-being for all.
