Jesus Unplugged by Bert Gary is a provocative, accurate, biblical re-examination of Jesus Christ. It goes back to the original passages in the Gospels that reveal not a cautious, image-conscious Jesus, but a provocative, politically incorrect cage-rattler for whom appearance and reputation meant nothing. There are profound implications in understanding that the Jesus of the Bible is no passive pushover, but a vigorous truth-warrior who slays falsehoods with a sharp, double-edged sword."

Jesus Unplugged is a new book written by Bert Gary. There is much emphasis in the church today, by laity and clergy, on being respectable, nice, and presentable. Yet where in scripture did Jesus Christ say that we should make being well-dressed and well-behaved priorities? Is the church guilty of reducing Christianity to mere social etiquette? The Jesus Christ of scripture rejected these priorities with word and deed. This book goes back to the original passages in the Gospels that reveal not a cautious, image-conscious Jesus Christ, but a provocative, politically incorrect cage-rattler for whom appearance and reputation meant nothing. It examines the original Gospel passages that are regularly avoided or sanitized by pastors, teachers, and writers exploring those times when Jesus said no and when he disturbed the peace. There are profound implications in understanding that the Jesus Christ of the Bible is no passive pushover, but a vigorous truth-warrior who slays falsehoods with a sharp, double-edged sword. Intended for adults interested in knowing Jesus Christ better and well-suited for personal reading or small group study. Jesus Unplugged is a provocative, accurate, biblical re-examination of Jesus.
