Publisher's Synopsis
Jesus of the East Discussion Guide: Questions, Practices, and Resources
by Phuc Luu, Kate Martin Williams, Jessica Cole, and Lily Wulfemeyer
A supplement to Jesus of the East: Reclaiming the Gospel for the Wounded (Herald Press, 2020)
Whether read individually or with a group, Jesus of the East: Reclaiming the Gospel of the Wounded continues to whisper its truth to countless readers. The notes of healing and liberation have resonated for people from a variety of religious and non-religious backgrounds. Christians of almost every religious stripe as well as Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, and even Atheists have found Luu's message to not only be true, but at the center of the human experience.
No longer can Jesus be seen as the guard of institutionalized power and privilege, but instead as one who stands and sits with those at the margins, especially those wounded by systemic and individual forces.
Packed with questions, practices, and resources, this guide serves as a tool to continue the work of creating a space where people can reflect on the message for the han-ridden, the gospel for the sinned against, in order to enflesh and live out this transformative message.
