Jesus is God, and we as necessarily devotional Christian poets must not shy away from that fact. These poems try to celebrate that reality, who He is, without sacrificing literary quality. They are distinctly American (baseball, jazz, and free verse) in form, Beat in the line of Mary Fabilli, Thomas Merton, and Daniel ""stick it to the man"" Berrigan. And they try to accomplish this without sacrificing humor and romp. May these, and all Christian poems, both now and in the future, wave that flag of freedom--no matter what our personal struggles. Our lives, our poems are about Jesus finally, the One who is mercy itself. May He look kindly upon us, and give us His peace. ""There is, writes the poet, 'a pretty loud party going on in the other world.' And with those words David Craig takes us on a journey of spiritual longing where 'each little moment' on earth, though suffused with astonishment and love, is only a 'pauper's map to heaven.' Throughout this book, the reader encounters the quotidian juxtaposed with the extraordinary--each and all a wonder. While Craig tells us, we might be 'more lost/than would seem possible, ' he also exquisitely reminds us that 'It takes nothing/to truly celebrate.'"" --Lois Roma-Deeley, author of The Short List of Certainties ""David Craig's poems read like something written by a hip Franciscan, filled with a surprising sense of self-effacement and humility, mixed with a continual note of celebration for the things of this world: sunsets, sunrises, the chirp of birds, his beautiful family, the happy howl of his two dogs. Somehow he makes you feel, as he says, as if Jesus were, in fact, 'to walk down the middle of our street / happy to sit with us on our back porch, ' to 'talk about whatever we need to belong to / at the moment.'"" --Paul Mariani, author of Epitaphs for the Journey ""David Craig is one of the best poets working today. His poetic vision might be best described as 'mystical realism, ' and to serve that vision, Craig has evolved a demotic yet lyric style that resembles Emily Dickinson's in its nerve-end economy, William Carlos Williams's in its plain-spoken diction and disarmingly unpretentious tropes, and CK Williams's in its candor of address."" --David Impastato, editor of Upholding Mystery ""The speaker of this collection is someone the reader wants to visit with and learn from. The subtle fusion of tenor and vehicle in his metaphors is a good technique for a fine Catholic poet whose readers need not be Catholic, but only seekers after the metaphysical, trying to find a refreshed vision. On one level these are simply poems about innocence and grace, and how these factors serve as a compass for living a good life in a society where they are underrated and ignored. This collection is satisfying to mind, heart, and spirit. The reader will return to it for refreshment and inspiration."" --Janet McCann, author of Buddha in the Barbed-Wire Garden ""I believe David Craig to be the foremost religious poet of the day whose special gift it is to reveal the presence and care of God in all things--especially the most unlikely things. He gives us poems as rich in humanity as they are of the mystery of God, which is the same. He is doing the work he was called for, and we are blessed by the presence his words generate."" --Howard McCord, author of Collected Poems ""This collection is clear-minded, heartfelt, and so reverent it seems irreverent. 'That is why I beat this drum, walking up and down the property line.' Honest and giddy, grateful and 'I don't know, happy, ' all the reader can do is rejoice over the fact that there is this kind of voice; that is if he or she doesn't mind sharing the trolley with Barbie and Ken, a horde of disagreeable tortoises."" --Periwinkle Bleu, Bon Vivant, Wife About Town David Craig, who had the foresight to marry Linda (nee Unger) Craig when she was a virtual unknown, is a Professor of English at the Franciscan University of Steubenville where he has tau

Mitanni Publishing is proud to present the first installment in the "U-N-I-Verse" series. "U-N-I-Verse" is a platform for all "seekers" to share wisdom with the world. It is a series where writers from all religions, schools of thought and walks of life come together to discuss differences and similarities in order to shed light on and build upon common points of interest that may lead to Universal balance and harmony. This series is intended to unify the human family and realign all with the cosmic symphony that man's ego and pride has disrupted.In Volume One of the series we will be exploring the often enigmatic character known as "Jesus", "Messiah", "Christ", "Yeshua", "Isa Ibn Maryam" and countless other names and epithets. One of the most monumental figures in human history, Jesus' life and teachings has been shrouded in mystery and confusion while still supplying ample light in regards to the distorted representations of his true teachings or Gospel (Injeel).Amidst the confusion of his life and death and alleged crucifixion, the true teachings of Jesus have succumbed to the degeneration of time and yet and still, the little that remains, has been enough to transform the lives of the poor and destitute, the forlorn monk, the debased drug addict and countless other lives. The remnants of his teachings have inspired the innocent youth and the cunning man; the simpleton and the sage alike. This fact alone should attest to the greatness of his Gospel (Injeel) for if fractions of his teachings have led to the spiritual transformation of many human souls, surely that which he brought to his disciples, opposers, and strangers through Divine Inspiration must have been even greater. Nonetheless, people from all walks of life share an affinity for the man and the myth, born to the Virgin Mary known as: "Jesus of Nazareth"
WHO IS JESUS?This is the very question which a youth group and their youth intern tackled together in the summer of 2016. We hear about him at Church, see his face on t-shirts and posters, even had the fad of wearing W. W. J. D. bracelets (What Would Jesus Do?). But who is Jesus?Surprisingly, he may not be what you expect. This is the conclusion which was made by a summer study within the very pages of the Bible, both the Old and the New Testaments, vs. who we think he is from popular consent. Discoveries were made, such as Jesus can be found in the book of Genesis, the extent of his role of reversal, and that he is both a lion and a lamb. These truths and more of the Son of God were brought to light from the dive the Rolla youth group made into the waters of Scripture.
A scholarly yet accessible book that offers a provocative view of Jesus, understood through the prism of friends and foes alike.
Jesús.Ámelo u ódielo, Él está en todas partes. En nuestras camisetas, calcomanías y hasta en las portadas de destacadasrevistas noticiosas, año tras año. Lo vemos en la pantalla gigante, en lostitulares informativos y en los letreros en los estadios.

What do we really know about Jesus of Nazareth? Two thousand years after his death, this adored yet controversial figure continues to raise a wealth of questions. In Jesus: A Biography , celebrated Catalan New Testament scholar Armand Puig i TÃrrech weaves a comprehensive historical narrative to answer many of the most intriguing questions about Jesus. What do we know about the way Jesus was raised? Why did he spend so much time with social outcasts? How did he simultaneously attract loyal followers and fierce adversaries? What did his words and actions mean? What can be said about his death and resurrection from a historical perspective? Puig i TÃrrech highlights Jesus' most profound and distinctive featuresâfrom his purposeful identification with the sick and poor and his relationship with his devoted followers to his astute trust in God's care of human historyâbringing into view a vivid, active, and believable Jesus.
Long before the New Quest for Jesus... Henry Cadbury followed his first book on Jesus, The Peril of Modernizing Jesus (1937) with a second a decade later. While still challenging our tendencies to confine the Master of Galilee to familiar programs and strategies, Jesus: What Manner of Man poses a more constructive approach to what might be known about the Jesus of history. In doing so, Cadbury focuses not simply on what he said and did, but more incisively on how Jesus taught and operated. Building on pressing questions about Jesus within the Gospels themselves, Cadbury brings their inquiry to bear on contemporary quests for Jesus with striking relevance. - from the new foreword by Paul N. Anderson, George Fox University ""This is a thoughtful and a thought-provoking book, the kind (of which, alas, there are too few) that deserves to be read slowly, with many a re-reading of weighty sentences."" Bruce M. Metzger, Princeton Theological Seminary ""One despairs of suggesting the richness of this book. It is full of penetrating insights and what is said in passing is likely to be as illuminating as the point which at the given moment is being intentionally made.... This is honest and constructive interpretation--searching, often disturbing, but both cleansing and creative. Although this is a small book, I shall be surprised if it does not soon take its place as one of the most important in the study of the life and teaching of Jesus."" John Knox, Union Theological Seminary Henry J. Cadbury (1883-1974) stands as one of the premier American biblical scholars of the twentieth century. He held the Hollis Chair at Harvard for twenty years and received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1947 on behalf of the American Friends Service Committee. Author of seven books and over 160 essays on biblical subjects, Cadbury's work on Luke-Acts, Jesus, and interpretive issues speaks with a timeless ring of authority.

This bold, fresh look at the historical Jesus and the Jewish roots of Christianity challenges both Jews and Christians to re-examine their understanding of Jesus's commitment to his Jewish faith. Instead of emphasizing the differences between the two religions, this groundbreaking book explains how the concepts of vicarious atonement, mediation, incarnation, and Trinity are actually rooted in classical Judaism.
Who do you say Jesus is?In his answer to this age-old question, Bruce Epperly brings us a new vision of Jesus of Nazareth, the healer, mystic, and prophet who is always more than we can imagine. This Jesus embraces all times and places with his mystical union with God, his healing presence, and his transforming prophetic challenge.Rather than requiring supernatural intervention from outside our reality, the Jesus of the Gospels is present in the natural, ordinary-yet-amazing world we too inhabit. The energy of his love opens up new realms of unexpected possibilities within our daily lives. At the same time, he points the way to meeting the challenges of our broken world. He calls us to venture out beyond the safe boundaries of doctrines and institutions, into new adventures of spiritual growth and inclusive ethical imagination. The quest to know Jesus never ends-and yet at the same time, he lives in us, inspiring us to embrace the ever-present God and transform the world.
