Aidan Reads reviewed The Wisdom Jesus by Cynthia Bourgeault
Review of 'The Wisdom Jesus' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
3.5 stars. A lot a great ideas regarding Christianity participating in the wider perennial wisdom tradition. Seeing Jesus as a wisdom teacher brought new light to my reading of Scripture. Her take is admittedly imaginative which is not all bad but in areas changes or discards the larger Christian tradition too easily, and in some areas assumes too much. (Usually in areas that I would see benefit by a healthy tension between tradition and mysticism). Overall, greatly appreciated this work.
