In this fascinating study Ann Christie analyses, and offers a theological appraisal, of the main christologies and soteriologies operating in a sample of ordinary churchgoers. Christie highlights the formal characteristics of ordinary Christology and raises questions about how we should respond to the beliefs about Jesus held by ordinary churchgoers.  aDescription based on print version record. 4aReligion.00aJesus ChristxPerson and officesvMiscellanea. 0aSalvationxChristianityvMiscellanea. 0aTheology, DoctrinalvPopular works. 7aRELIGION / Christian Theology / Christology2bisacsh 4aElectronic books.08iPrint version:aChristie, AnntOrdinary Christology : Who Do You Say I Am?
