Gospels for the 21st Century

What was it about Jesus Christ that attracted great crowds to listen to Him? Was it the miracles, the parables in everyday language, or the force of His moral teaching?

And why, ultimately, did the religious leadership of the day determine to end the work of the man from Galilee? In answering these questions, David Hulme takes us on a fascinating journey that will probably change your perceptions of Jesus and His original followers.
