Drawing from the personal experiences of a seasoned pastor, the scholarship of the liberal Jesus Seminar and the gospel accounts of the life of Jesus, Teacher, Guide, Companion cha llenges readers to reexamine their own relationship with Jesus Christ and its significance in the 21st century. Integrating both secular and religious source materials, Wikstrom demonstrates how a close examination of historical findings and the Gospels can lead to a renewed faith in Jesus Christ. The field of Jesus study, which is widely dominated by academics, will benefit from this analysis by a working minister. Wikstrom, born a Presbyterian and raised a Methodist, is pastor of the First Universalist Church in Yarmouth, ME.
