Jesus Consumer combines modern consumer research with the latest writings on historical Jesus to propose a model for contemporary consumer behavior that pays serious regard to Jesus' "consumption teachings." Klassen argues that Jesus' consumer teachings possess the greatest potential to help us effect positive change in our communities.
