Vulnerable God: How Jesus Upends Our Assumptions about God--And Shows Us How to Be Human

Discover the God Who Became Fully Human--and What That Means for Your Faith

The mystery of God made flesh isn't just doctrine. It's an invitation to reimagine both God and ourselves.

In Vulnerable God, pastor and theologian Kenneth Tanner offers a rich meditation on the incarnation. Tracing the events of Jesus's life as told in the Bible and the rhythms of the church year, Tanner invites us to recapture our wonder that God has become human--to discover what Christ's vulnerability reveals about the heart of God and how the full humanity of Jesus transforms our lives. This book explores

● how vulnerability is not a flaw but the very glory of divine love;
● what it means to be fully human the way God is human; and
● how Jesus shows us God's true character through service and surrender.

Full of poetic depth and pastoral warmth, Vulnerable God is for those looking to recapture a gentler, more human faith rooted in humility and wonder. Including a foreword by Brian Zahnd, this thoughtful companion is ideal for seasons of reflection and rediscovery.
