Each Christian tradition has a strong tendency to believe that their perspective on what it means to "follow Jesus" should be normative for all Christians. Contrary to this conceit, this book argues that a full-orbed understanding of what it means to follow Jesus must incorporate the best insights of each tradition. This book will provide the contours of that richer more comprehensive understanding. It will provide a rich resource for seminaries and churches within each of 12 Christian traditions to "continue" the initial conversations reported on by means of twelve sets of "Questions for Future Conversations."
