Christ Without Borders - Paperback
by Jacob Parappally (Author)
Explores the mystery of Christ through the experiences and perspectives of India and South Asia.
In this stimulating work of global Christology, noted scholar Jacob Parappally develops critiques of Western Christian preoccupations with dogmas and doctrines about Jesus Christ that "do not let the mystery of Christ be experienced by those who do not share" Jewish, Greco-Roman, Mediterranean, and European perspectives.
