Christology in Mark's Gospel: Four Views brings together key voices in conversation in order to offer a clear entry point into early Christians' understanding of Jesus' identity

How can you still be a Christian? This is the most common question Diana Butler Bass is asked today. It is a question that many believers ponder as they wrestle with disillusionment in their church and its leadership.

No one can foretell of a specific event that will occur on an exact date, hundreds of years into the future! However, scientific dating the precise day that Roman armies burned down Herod's Temple in AD 70 reveals that time-based passages accomplished this impossible feat.
