Portrait of a Radical

by Richard Rohr

First published 2001

Father Richard Rohr takes the stage for an evening that will challenge everything audiences think they know about Jesus. The Franciscan priest, known as the Catholic Church's most popular cassette author, delivers a lecture that reveals Jesus from an angle most have never encountered. Rohr's words cut through conventional religious thinking as he speaks to a live audience, his presentation later captured for the documentary "Portrait of a Radical / The Jesus Movement." The unedited recording preserves every moment of this dynamic speaker's provocative interpretation. Rohr doesn't soften his message or cater to expectations. Instead, he offers a vision of Jesus that pushes against traditional boundaries and comfortable assumptions. This ninety-minute audio experience captures the raw energy of a controversial figure in modern Christianity as he reshapes familiar stories into something entirely unexpected.
