What does it really mean to have faith in Jesus? How does such faith go beyond holding a set of beliefs about him? Is anything lost by merely considering him a great teacher of wisdom, an outstanding first-century guru, and a person of heroic greatness?

In a contemporary climate of scepticism and reductionism, how can the Church’s teaching about Jesus Christ speak to the modern world? Fr Gerry O’Collins, SJ, explores the key issues which bring faith in Jesus into dialogue with concerns of today.
