While sages extol humility as the chief of all virtue, too often we have treated it as optional, or even as a weakness. Yet, there was nothing that Jesus did that was not saturated with the color of this difficult and enigmatic virtue. It is hard to reward, it cannot be achieved in the formal sense, and it is often lost as it is directly pursued. Humility cannot stand on stage or spectacle and therefore cannot be apprehended the way generosity or even love can be. In other words, it is not gained by a direct campaign but is somehow a product of something else. Elusive: The Pursuit of Jesus and Humility is about that "something else." It is about imitating the life of Jesus. A life that was quintessentially humble.

<p>How do the life of Jesus Christ and our theological perspective on that life affect the way we work among the poor? What image best mobilizes and empowers the poor to be participants in their own liberation? If Jesus is the model for the Christian life, indeed for idealized humanity, then how should that influence the way we offer the good news of the cross to the materially and spiritually poor? Simply put, valid theology leads to Christ. valid Christology leads to mission. And valid missiology leads us to the poor.</p>

<p>Different makes a compelling argument that passionate love for God and the world he came to save will produce disciples who stand with, but not as, the lost world. We can walk alongside people and still stand out from them. Disciples cannot call other disciples to repentance and change if they are not themselves changed and changing. Churches cannot serve their divine purpose to call cities and systems to redemption and change if they are not themselves redeemed and redemptive.</p>
