Why Jesus Crossed the Road: Following the Unconventional Travel Itinerary of Jesus

It can be challenging-even uncomfortable-to step into the lives of people who are different than we are. Yet in a world that was governed strictly by geographical, religious, and social barriers, Jesus was audacious enough to cross the borders that kept people in safe categories. He demonstrated that the God-following life is one committed to entering the lives and stories of all people. Why Jesus Crossed the Road challenges readers to become "road-crossing Christians"-people who see border-crossing as a spiritual discipline essential for authentic transformation, both in their own lives and in the lives of those they meet along the way.
