Product Description:
Some two thousand years after he walked the earth, Jesus Christ is still a hot topic. And for all the ridiculous, twisted, Da Vinci Code-esque conspiracy theories and lies about Jesus that have permeated popular culture and even the academy over the years, the truth about his character, nature, and work has not changed. So what exactly is the truth about Jesus Christ?
That's the question the authors of Vintage Jesus seek to answer by breaking it down into a number of sub-questions about Jesus, including Is Jesus the only God? Why did Jesus come to earth? Did Jesus rise from death? Why should we worship Jesus? and others.

This reminded me of one huge Chick tract but with great theology, wonderful humor and questions that any non-believer (or even old believer like myself) would ask. Trust me, it is a good thing. (I think I was looking for that analogy due to the really cool cover to the hardcover.)
Oh yes. I understand that Driscoll wants to make sure that the point is not only made but it sinks into your heart. I think he does a wonderful job in doing so. He does it with a humor that is a bit courser ... Read More

According to the subtitle of Mark Driscoll's new book, Vintage Jesus (Crossway, 2008) aims to provide "timeless answers to timely questions." Actually, this book offers the reverse - timely answers to timeless questions.
Vintage Jesus takes weighty theology and breaks it down into today's vernacular through the inclusion of quotes and stories from a variety of cultural sources. The way that Vintage Jesus has been crafted may tell you as much about Jesus as the content. Here is theology that ... Read More

This isn't your Grandpa's theology book. Mark Driscoll & Gerry Breshears bring a fresh approach to timeless Christian doctrines about Jesus in a way that is sure to resonate with those (especially non-Christians and new Christians) in their twenties and thirties. Driscoll's engaging, but sometimes shocking style is on display at various points throughout this work. Even if you're amongst those who have criticized Driscoll in the past for his sometimes raw and edgy language, I'd ask that you give him ... Read More

This is a great book to use with a college small group. It is easy to read,entertaining,informative, and funny yet very orthodox. We're using it to train new leaders and get to know where students are with their basic beliefs. Driscoll can be caustic and over the line at times as he is want to do, but i think the way he confronts common misconceptions and ideas in the world of christendom more than makes up for the burned bridges. He is logical, upfront, and honest . . . with a few glimpses of compassion! ... Read More

This book is very well written. It's got everything a bible-believing Christian would want in a book- theology, sarcasm, humor, facts, stories, and JESUS! I love Driscoll because he holds fast to the Bible and to Jesus yet is able to hold culture in an open hand. So much of the American Christian culture now blends with the secular culture around it. The result is truth is relative, in order to be an "educated" Christian we need to engage in "conversations" about Christian beliefs and allow room to change what ... Read More
