Notes
A reflection on Christ's life and especially his forty days in the wilderness when his ministry and choices for the future were made. "The work of beginning done, he limps out of the desert and into a life whose power will be suffering, his status -- a servant; his mission -- to become bread". "Jesus leaves the stones be. They are stones for God's holy reason. Hungry Jesus takes up himself the work of becoming bread. ... Hungry fed. The bread has no need to impress the hungry. People stuffed with cake may not notice the bread, people selling caramel corn may not admire the bread, but hungry people will find it. Pierced Hands will break the bread. It is not that the bread becomes the Body of Christ, but that the Body of Christ becomes the bread."

Notes
"Sermon on the occasion of the consecration of the Ven. John Pritchard as Bishop of Jarrow" [given Saturday 19 January 2002]. "At the consecration of a bishop we recall that the big picture makes Christ the heart of the message." The author based his remarks on an analysis of the Rose Window which has Christ as the central window/focus. "One of the biggest threats to church life is functional atheism. Which we can define as planning, acting, and living as if everything depended on us. The source of our life is prayer, study of the scriptures and worship." And finally, returning to the image of Christ at the centre of the rose window. "A book of Rose Windows notes that the centre of the rose unites the various points on the circumference. We speak of people being diametrically opposed. But in the window we cannot imagine people who are diametrically opposed, cat-calling or back-biting across the circle. For their words have to pass through the figure of Christ."

"For us, the image of two fishes represents a tension of the two aspects of Christ, the persona and the shadow, held together in a dynamic unity. We see this tension as an accurate image of Christ, and of the dynamism of living in Christ, who is both known and also the stranger who is not yet known. People generally regard the nature of Christ as known and complete. However, we at Two Fishes Press see Christ's nature as surprising, vital and changing. When we struggle to understand and have a relationship with this dynamic Christ, we change the nature of Christianity". -- Intro.

"Two Fishes Press was founded in 2005 to articulate a new perspective on the nature of Christ. [The] Editors ... share a background in the development of ideas linking an understanding of psychology with views of Christ's nature. Past projects have included a psychological journal, 'The Mirror', a documentary video 'Dry Bones: Christianity in Transition', and ten years working in association with the Anglican church in Canada, bridging theological and psychological perspectives on human nature and the nature of Christ. 'Christ in the Shadow' is the first book published by Two Fishes Press". -- back cover.

Notes
The author, Archbishop of Perth and Primate of Australia, describes several types of love but focuses primarily on `agape' and makes two main points. First, that: "love in the distinctively Christian use of the term `agape', is not love in some general sense, but in a most particular and distinctive sense." "The word `agape' denotes the specific self-giving of the particular elf who was Jesus ... `Agape' is shorthand for the highly distinctive character of the love or self-giving that was expressed in Jesus' historical life and lifted up in awful beauty on the Cross." "Now if we hold that idea of the uniqueness of Jesus' self-giving in our minds, the second point about love that i want to focus upon is this: whenever we find ourselves loving others in generous self-giving, it has a certain spontaneity about it. Our loving possesses an uncontrived quality."

"`Wherever there is the conjunction of suffering and joy, of death and life, there is eucharist', said one of the participants at a meeting of theologians [at the Community of Grandchamp, Switzerland, in December 1981]. The World Council of Churches had convened the meeting to discuss the theme of its forthcoming Assembly: 'Jesus Christ -- the Life of the World'. [This book] draws upon and continues the reflection on the theme within a eucharistic framework. Through the many forms of death and the many signs of life it deals with, it sustains the vision of a world made whole in Jesus Christ." -- back cover.

Includes bibliography (p. 137-138) and index.
"'For Christ's Sake' was originally written not to be controversial nor to disturb the faithful but as an attempt to wrestle anew with the only evidence about Jesus we have, the New Testament. I wanted to see whether its message, compromised and changed over the years to suite a range of political and other interests, could be released anew in terms ordinary people could understand. In other words, is there good news there for a spiritually confused and empty generation and can it be communicated to young and old alike ?" -- Preface.
