Description

In 1907, in a remote region of China, explorers discovered a vast treasure trove of ancient scrolls. Dating from the 5th to 11th centuries AD, they recounted a Taoist interpretation of Jesus' life and teachings that was beautiful, inspiring and unique. In The Jesus Sutras eminent theologian Martin Palmer provides the first popular history and translation of these extraordinary sacred texts. They offer a gentler, more spiritual Christianity, and provide an important spiritual message for us today.
