How exactly does one explain Jesus? That is the central question of this book. But the task
of explaining Jesus is complicated. For many nonbelievers, skeptics, or practitioners of non-
Jesus-based religions or spiritualities, it can be very strange to refer to a particular man who
lived in the first century CE as someone who is still living. Even for some believers, this idea
can be a difficult thing to understand—even given the teachings of their faith. Thus, whether
believer or nonbeliever or somewhere in-between, for the intellectually curious, there is need
for an explanation. Explaining Jesus explores the possibilities of a secular, interdisciplinary, science-based explanation for the phenomenon of Jesus.
Benjamin Bennett-Carpenter serves as special lecturer in writing and rhetoric, liberal studies, and the Honors College at Oakland University and is the author of Death in Documentaries: The Memento Mori Experience.
