Twenty-first century theology often makes a virtue of deconstructing traditional claims about the person and work of Christ. Claims about the central significance of Jesus Christ appear to be oppressive, intolerant and even violent. Jane Moulaison’s strategic work engages several contemporary Christological critiques leveled against classical Christology and argues that such critical theologies are not undermined by the claim of Christ’s central significance but are rather radicalized by it. She ably re-reads the tradition that seeks to interpret Christ’s saving activity in light of several contemporary theological and political concerns.
