Philip Jenkins -- Baylor University "Different societies vary in exactly how they understand Christ's gospel message in terms of their own culture. The rewarding essays in  Jesus without Borders  offer an impressively wide-ranging survey of those diverse responses and understandings of Christology. Provocative and interesting." Christopher J. H. Wright -- Langham Partnership "This book provides all of us with a kind of stereophonic listening to one another across the cultures that shape us but should not define us as Christians. The whole Majority World Theology series promises to be a refreshingly reciprocal contribution to global theology." Emmanuel Katongole -- University of Notre Dame "A well-written and much-needed book.


Through these essays the reader travels around the world and gets a flavor of the rich theological ferment under way in world Christianity." Juan Francisco Martínez -- Fuller Theological Seminary "Provides an important invitation. Each chapter's response to Jesus' question Who do you say I am?' offers a slightly different perspective on how Christians around the world answer that question.  Jesus without Borders  helps us take seriously the global nature of Christian faith and practice." Gerald Bray -- Beeson Divinity School "Christianity is rapidly expanding in the Majority World, which is playing more and more a part in the faith's ongoing theological development. We are privileged to have this collection of essays as a guide to what we may expect to see in the years to come." Englewood Review of Books "A strong collection of essays written by theologians with roots in the majority world." Bob on Books  (blog) "As the opening work of the series on Majority World Theology, this volume set a high standard of rich and vigorous discussion we might have around our One Lord.


" The Presbyterian "This book might be characterized as introductory rather than comprehensive, suggestive rather than exhaustive. Its eight chapters are meant to provide the reader with tantalizing tastes of a multicourse meal. For those left wanting more, the authors are careful to cite key thinkers and provide suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter." Bulletin for Biblical Research "The book achieves its aim to present different Christological views from the Majority World. The essays are clearly written, well researched and reveal in a stimulating way the different versions of Christology existent in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.".
