In The First Christmas, two of today's top Jesus scholars, Marcus J. Borg and John Dominic Crossan, show how history has biased our reading of the nativity story as it appears in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. The First Christmas explores the beginning of the life of Christ, peeling away the sentimentalism that has build up over two thousand years around this most well known of all stories to reveal the truth of what the Gospels actually say.

  • A reality check!

    J D Crossan and the late Marcus Borg unfold the Christian fantasy that has become Christmas. Let Santa and the elves have their day, it’s a great celebration but by releasing Jesus from Bethlehem myth in this erudite fashion the authors make a pathway into a comprehensible Christianity for the 21st century.
