{"product_id":"a-thicker-jesus-9780664238179","title":"A Thicker Jesus","description":"Why have some Christians, such as Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Martin Luther King Jr., been able to speak truth to power at great personal cost, while others readily capitulate to injustice? In this magnum opus, Christian ethicist Glen Stassen argues that such robust Christianity stems from believing in a \"thicker\" Jesus, who is Lord over the whole of life and not just one compartment of it. Belief in this thicker Jesus results in \"incarnational discipleship\" and can help Christians deal with the challenges of what Charles Taylor has identified as a secular age. Stassen elegantly weaves the characteristics of incarnational discipleship as correctives to secularism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eStassen, Glen Harold:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eGlen H.
