Rescuing Jesus: A Heretic's Handbook presents a bold and provocative challenge to mainstream Christian doctrine, arguing that the historical and spiritual figure of Jesus has been systematically distorted, institutionalized, and co-opted by the very structures that claim to represent him. Dudley Hyde constructs a compelling case for stripping away centuries of ecclesiastical dogma to uncover a rawer, more radical vision of Jesus — one rooted in compassion for the marginalized, defiance of power, and an unflinching commitment to human dignity.\n\nWritten with the irreverent clarity of a true iconoclast, this work sits at the crossroads of theology, cultural criticism, and moral philosophy. Hyde's style is sharp and unapologetic, drawing on history, scripture, and social conscience to challenge readers who may have long accepted received wisdom without question. It is a text designed not to comfort, but to disturb — and in that disturbance, to illuminate. Who, ultimately, gets to define Jesus, and what is at stake when that definition serves empire rather than the poor?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50813036429531,"sku":"2026100010305-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/73cf45f5-5c44-4ffe-84cb-3c630ad348a0.png?v=1792372059","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100010305-secondhand-rescuing-jesus-a-heretics-handbook","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
