"An excellent resource for a fully embodied life of faith" Engaging Jesus with Our Senses offers a fresh way to read the Gospels with an emphasis on embodiment, helping us to connect our sensory experiences with those of ancient readers. "It is not easy to write about texts and yet evoke all the bodily senses. But Jeannine Marie Hanger succeeds brilliantly where most would fail. In this vivid and engaging yet well-researched book, utilizing recent shifts in scholarship, she draws us into the rich sensory world of the Gospel narratives and encourages the use of all our senses in encountering the Word made flesh. This is an excellent resource for a fully embodied life of faith." --John M. G. Barclay, Durham University "Insightful. Intriguing. Invitational. Engaging Jesus with Our Senses is all this and more. Hanger explores the intersection of the Gospels and sensory experience, building on scholarship from both arenas. The results are both thought-provoking and experientially rich." --Jeannine K. Brown, Bethel Seminary "While the theological content of the Gospels is highly significant, the tactile witness of their accounts packs a powerful punch. In this lucid treatment of engaging the senses, the Gospel narratives form a literary bridge between sensory experience back then and experiential encounters with the subject of the texts--Jesus--in the here and now." --Paul N. Anderson, George Fox University; cofounder of the John, Jesus, and History Project "This is a wonderful work that brings to life the cultural world of the Bible and guides us to a deeper level of transformation."--Michelle Lee-Barnewall, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University "An enjoyable and accessible introduction to the sensory qualities of the New Testament writings. I hope that all who read it will find themselves thinking in fresh ways about what it means to participate in God and the world." --Grant Macaskill (from the foreword)
