About this listen
Inspired by the resounding success of its cinematic counterpart, Portrait of a Radical / The Jesus Movement reveals the often-overlooked radical nature of Jesus' mission, showing how his transformative message remains a beacon of hope for many and a threat to the powerful. Originally introduced to audiences through a highly acclaimed documentary film that aired on Hallmark and the Discovery Channel. Portrait of a Radical, the book, includes all of the uncut interviews not contained in the film, building upon the captivating narrative that captured viewers.
Portrait of a Radical showcases the profound insights of three distinguished thinkers. Father Richard Rohr, a Franciscan friar, is renowned for his teachings on spirituality, integrating various religious traditions while emphasizing mysticism, contemplation, and social justice. The late Huston Smith, a celebrated religious studies scholar, is known for his comparative work on the world's major religions and his ability to clarify complex spiritual concepts. And Allen Dwight Callahan, a respected biblical scholar and theologian, is acclaimed for his analysis of the New Testament and his exploration of the intersections between religion, culture, and African American history.
Each chapter delves into specific aspects of Jesus' life and teachings from three distinct vantage points, offering alternative yet complementary perspectives. This approach provides richer, more contextualized insights, shedding light on elements of Jesus' life that may have gone under the radar—elements that some might find uncomfortable. From the spiritual significance of his desert journey to the pivotal role of women in Jesus' ministry, each topic invites listeners on a transformative journey of discovery.

Selective use of scripture - by preachers and politicians alike - has been employed to justify violence, racism, misogyny, homophobia...the list goes on. Still, we believe the Bible has something important to say. How can we read it in a contemplative and intelligent way? In What Do We Do with the Bible?, Richard Rohr answers just this question. He offers a methodology of hermeneutics (interpretation) that creates a foundation for a hopeful and cosmic vision - incarnation from beginning to end of time. (He explores this vision further in The Universal Christ).

How do we live compassionately in a time of violence and despair? What can we do with our private disappointments and the anger we feel in such an unjust world? In his most personal book yet, Richard Rohr turns to the writings of the Jewish prophets, revealing how some of the lesser-read books of the Bible offer us a crucial path forward today.

The enlightenment you seek in other religions has been present in Christianity from the beginning. Richard Rohr, a global leader in spiritual awakening, helps you recognize the forces (such as ego resistance and dual thinking) that separate you from your deeper self. Then, drawing from Gospels and the greatest Christian contemplatives, he shows you what it means to be spiritually awake. You will learn why your ego resists change and growth, what is useful about popular ideas such as the law of attraction, what Jesus, the first mythical leader in the West, can teach you.
