Brain McLaren looks at what the life and teachings of Jesus have to say about most critical problems in our world today.

What do the life and teaching of Jesus have to say about the most critical global problems in our world today? McLaren asks, 'Shouldn't a message purporting to be the best news in the world be doing better than this?'


What he sets forth in this provocative, unsettling work is a 'form of Christian faith that is holistic, integral, balanced, that offers good news for both the living and the dying, that speaks of God's grace at work both in this life and the life to come, both to individuals and to societies and the planet as a whole.'
