Jesus : uncovering the life, teachings, and relevance of a religious revolutionary / by Borg, Marcus J.(CARDINAL)342083; Borg, Marcus J.Jesus, a new vision.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 313-335) and indexes.Jesus today : telling his story -- The Gospels : memory and testimony -- The Gospels : memory, metaphor, and method -- The shaping of Jesus : Jewish tradition in an imperial world -- The shaping of Jesus : his experience of God -- The big picture : the synoptic profile of Jesus -- God : God's character and passion -- Wisdom : the broad way and the narrow way -- Resistance : the Kingdom and the domination system -- Executed by Rome, vindicated by God -- Jesus and American Christianity today.Almost two thousand years after his death, Jesus continues to be front-page news in the United States. Yet American Christians are deeply divided about what it means to follow him. Bible scholar Borg takes us on a journey to discover who Jesus was, what he taught, and why he still matters today. Borg argues that how we see Jesus affects how we see Christianity and reveals a new way of seeing--a new perspective that can overcome the differences between the literalists and progressives, a path that emphasizes following "the way" of Jesus, the original name of the Jesus movement. Jesus remains the decisive revelation of God, but we now encounter him as both a reality and a role model centered in God, focused on both personal and political transformation, emphasizing practices rather than beliefs, and exemplifying a faith characterized by deep commitment and gentle certitude.--From publisher description.

We want to do more than survive : abolitionist teaching and the pursuit of educational freedom / by Love, Bettina L.,1979-author.(CARDINAL)856562;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 165-179) and index.Drawing on personal stories, research, and historical events, an esteemed educator offers a vision of educational justice inspired by the rebellious spirit and methods of abolitionists. Drawing on her life's work of teaching and researching in urban schools, Bettina Love persuasively argues that educators must teach students about racial violence, oppression, and how to make sustainable change in their communities through radical civic initiatives and movements. She argues that the US educational system is maintained by and profits from the suffering of children of color. Instead of trying to repair a flawed system, educational reformers offer survival tactics in the forms of test-taking skills, acronyms, grit labs, and character education, which Love calls the educational survival complex. To dismantle the educational survival complex and to achieve educational freedom-not merely reform-teachers, parents, and community leaders must approach education with the imagination, determination, boldness, and urgency of an abolitionist. Following in the tradition of activists like Ella Baker, Bayard Rustin, and Fannie Lou Hamer, We Want to Do More Than Survive introduces an alternative to traditional modes of educational reform and expands our ideas of civic engagement and intersectional justice.
