While Christians love to focus on a gentle, tender Jesus, Harlow
offers an unforgettable reintroduction to the true character of
Jesus and invites us to get to know the savior who was gracious but
also blunt, sometimes sarcastic, and wildly passionate about
bringing people to the heart of God. We often don't know what to do
with the Bible's stories of Jesus' righteous rage. Yet the truth
is, while the Son of God was loving and tender, his words could be
equally sharp and biting. The same man who said, "Love your
enemies" (Matthew 5:44) also said, "You snakes, how will you escape
being condemned to hell?" (Matthew 23:33). With compelling
storytelling and enlightening examinations of Scripture, Tim Harlow
journeys through the gospels and looks at what, and who, ignited
Jesus' anger. He guides us through instances of Jesus' anger in
response to the barriers people put up: in the temple, where money
changers literally denied access to the Father, especially for the
non-Jews and the poor; during his teaching, when little children
were denied access; on the Sabbath, when religious leaders put
rules above relationship and suffering above healing; and many
more. What if, Harlow asks, by coming to understand God's holy
anger, we come to know a savior we never knew before? How can we
respond like Jesus when good intentions, prejudices and judgments,
traditions and rules, and selfish and joyless people conspire to
keep others from God's presence?
