Follow Andrew Klavan to a deeper, richer understanding of the words of Jesus.Andrew Klavan had a problem: Much of what Jesus said puzzled him. He believed what he read in the Gospels, but he struggled to understand what Jesus really meant. So he began a journey of wrestling with the beautiful and often strange words of Jesus.He learned Greek in order to read the Gospels in their original languages, and he vowed to set aside any preconceptions about what the Scriptures say. But it wasn't until he began exploring how some of history's greatest writers wrestled with the same issues we confront today-political upheaval, rejection of social norms, growing disbelief in God-that he found a new way of understanding what Jesus meant.In The Truth and Beauty, Klavan combines a decades-long writing career with a lifetime of reading to discover a fresh understanding of the Gospels. By reading the words of Jesus through the life and work of writers such as William Wordsworth and John Keats, Mary Shelley and Samuel Taylor Coleridge-the English romantics-Klavan discovered a way to encounter Jesus in a deeper and more profound way than ever before.For readers seeking to find renewed meaning in the words of Jesus-and for those who are striving for belief in a materialistic world-The Truth and Beauty offers an intimate account of one man's struggle to understand the Gospels in all their strangeness, and so find his way to a life that is, as he says, "the most creative, the most joyful, and surely the most true." You can find it too.
