This learned, highly personal, and blunt devotional commentary on selected passages in the four gospels is intended for both devotional and educational purposes. It showcases a number of archetypal images of Jesus found in the gospels, including Jesus as Wildman; Jesus as feminine man; Jesus as wounded healer; Jesus as fiery prophet; and Jesus as Trickster. Contemporary readers, churched and unchurched, will find The Gospels with Salt very informative and stimulating.

Honest and moving... anyone who loves the scriptures will find new meaning in this book of personal observation and reflection on the gospels. Reading this book will give you a deeper understanding of who Jesus is and who you are, as a follower and believer. -- Janaan Manternach, author of This is our Faith Francis Gross...allows readers a glimpse...of his own understanding [and] feats of associations [which] are full of reminiscence and enthusiasm; they are wide-ranging...a friendly book, but not a lackadaisical one. -- Philip C. Fischer Review For Religious Gross peels away the layers of conventional piety and pedestrian respectability that deaden the impact of the gospels. He reveals the Jesus story for what it is, a down to earth, blue collar message that speaks to the deepest longings of the human heart. -- Rev. James DiGiacomo, S.J., veteran religious educator, speaker, and writer
