PAPERBACK- EVANGELICAL PRESS
In his latest book, Dane Ortlund reflects on God's subversive grace as it emerges in each of the Gospel accounts. Surprised By Jesus exults in this good news and the "scandalous mercy" Jesus loves to pour out on us all.
PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION:
When God-in-the-flesh showed up twenty centuries ago in Palestine, the religious PhDs rejected him and the prostitutes and social outcasts flocked to him. Why? Because the open welcome of divine grace that Jesus offers, open to anyone who would simply leave their moral resume at home, is not predictable. It is not safe. It is subversive...
In this book, Dane Ortlund reflects on this subversive grace as it uniquely emerges in each of the four Gospel accounts. In each Gospel, the message and mission of Jesus is deeply surprising:
In Matthew, we see the surprise of disobedient obedience.
In Mark, we see the surprise of the king undergoing the fate of a criminal.
