The Wise Men and A Racist God Discovering Redemptive Revelations in World Religions
Author: Mathew P John

The Wise Men and a Racist God recounts the personal pilgrimage of a Christ-Follower from the East to the West, exploring God?s redemptive revelations outside the boundaries of Christian tradition. In this rollercoaster ride through six major world religions, we encounter a variety of symbols that seem to point, incredibly, to the God of the Bibl... more »e. From Hindu avatars and Buddhist bodhisattvas to Sikh gurus, Muslim prophets, and the Jewish messiah, the author takes us across the world to consider how different religions attempt to answer the deep longing for a savior-figure within every human heart.

Ideal for personal reading and small group studies, this book serves both as an introductory course on world religions and an inspirational book for personal spiritual growth.

?How can the world religions be so drastically different and yet also uncannily similar and possibly related? Isn't it incomprehensible that the great faiths are both strikingly contrasting but also remarkably overlapping and even convergent? Might these paradoxical observations be resolved because Jesus is both the unavoidable stumbling block that sets Christianity apart but yet perhaps also the one way that somehow they all point to? The Wise Men and the Racist God invites readers on a journey to consider these questions in light of a gospel that challenges, even as it opens up conversation with, people in other faiths.?

Dr. Amos Yong,

Director, CMR, Fuller Theological Seminary

"The book, birthed out of personal experience and passion, is an excellent resource for all of us to understand our neighbour?s perspective and the gifts we all have to give one another. In a world where more compassion, respect and understanding is so desperately needed, The Wise Men and A Racist God is a timely bridge in a sea of walls."

Author: Life?s Great Dare: Risking It All for the Abundant Life

"The Wise Men and A Racist God offers an incredible resource to people of all religious backgrounds, particularly Christians who are looking to understand world religions and how people can talk together in a respectful and thoughtful way about their beliefs. The author?s breadth of knowledge, thoughtful insights and conversational approach are a very rare combination and make it easy for people to grasp the beliefs of world religions, learn from each other and also consider the life and message of Jesus in light of world religions. I highly recommend this book.?
