by Virgilio P. Elizondo (Rowman & Littlefield)
Jesus offered hope to the people on the fringes of society,
the ND professor of theology says, as he combines personal stories,
theological observations and an analysis of the Gospel narratives
in a reflection on the humanity of Jesus. Elizondo calls Jesus
the "Mextizo Messiah" and compares his station in life
to present-day members of the Latino American community.
