Jane Barter Moulaison's remarkable book engages contemporary
critical understandings of Jesus Christ-including postcolonial,
feminist, pluralist, ecological, and socialist-to argue that the
core convictions of traditional Christology remain a viable,
valuable, and even indispensable witness to the gospel in an
imperiled world. Contemporary theology often makes a virtue of
deconstructing traditional claims about the person and work of
Christ. Claims about the central significance of Jesus Christ
appear to be oppressive, intolerant, and even violent. Jane Barter
Moulaison engages several contemporary christological critiques of
classical Christology and argues that such critical theologies are
not undermined by the claim of Christ's central significance but
are rather radicalized by it. She ably re-reads the tradition that
seeks to interpret Christ's saving activity in light of several
contemporary theological and political concerns. In so doing, she
suggests that there are extraordinary resources available to those
who long for political and material transformation precisely
through the abandonment of spiritualized answers to Jesus'
question: "Who do you say that I am?"
