Have you ever wondered what Jesus would say to Mohammed? Or Buddha? Or Oscar Wilde? Maybe you have a friend who practices another religion or admires a more contemporary figure. Drop in on a conversation between Jesus and some well-known individuals whose search for the meaning of life took them in many directions - and influenced millions.

Popular scholar Ravi Zacharias sets a captivating scene in this first in the intriguing Conversations with Jesus series. Through dialogue between Christ and Gautama Buddha that reveals Jesus' warm, impassioned concern for all people, God's true nature is explored. It's a well-priced version that you will enjoy owning.

I've found this book great because I had never come across any material that would synthesize what Buddhism stands for and how it stands compared to the message of Jesus. Guiding us through a pleasant narrative, Gautama Buddha's story is introduced to the layperson and the most remarkable aspects of that worldview are shed light upon.
This is an indispensable reading for those who want to know more about other worldviews and compare the principles of religions with the teachings of Jesus.

Pleasant and informative reading

I think Ravi does a fantastic job of exposing the heart, the nature, the essence, of our triune God; revealing the love of the father and our hope found in Jesus. While this was a good exposé of the differences between the teachings of Buddha and Buddhism and the gospel of Jesus Christ, I think that the real value is revealed as Jesus exposes the relationship we have been welcomed into with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

Value found in the Conclusions or Jesus?

Ravi does an excellent job of making concise ideas for comparison. His ability to illustrate to communicate ideas is wonderful. This is a book that focuses on a few topics which will lead to more questions, but I think that is great. It's a good story.

a good concise comparison

Ravi did a masterful job of contrasting Jesus and The Buddha. Many blur the two views. But at their core the teachings are vastly different.

Very good!

Ravi attempted dialogue way pushed but interesting. Seemed to be wrestling with his own issues.

Interesting attempt at Socratic dialogue

Would you listen to Lotus and the Cross again? Why?

Yes, I would certainly listen to this audio book again. It is rich in story and theology (both Buddhist and Christian).This is a very cool book that is actually really really sad, in which Jesus and Buddha travel together and converse in a river boat with a young woman (who is by now a diseased prostitute) and the boat's captain. As they travel, they discuss their respective worldviews and how they play out in relation of the young woman's life and pending death.I'm biased of course (we all are) but honestly I cannot see how Buddhism could offer me anything that I want in this world that comes even close to the love of God and the hope of the future Kingdom of God. It is plain in the story that Jesus connects the diseased and dying young woman to a future hope, a connection to the infinite personal God, who loves and comforts her as she dies, and offers hope and forgiveness into eternity. I feel desperately sad for woman like the one in this fictionalized story, who really do exist in large numbers in Buddhist countries, where in many cases young women are tricked into prostitution, to satisfy the lusts of men, and have no hope or dignity which is exactly what Jesus offers.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Lotus and the Cross?

Seeing the contrast between the hope that Buddhism offers to the young dying prostitute over against what Jesus offers to her.

Which character – as performed by Simon Vance – was your favorite?

No clear winner here.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Different beliefs, contrasting hopes.

Any additional comments?

Great book that I really appreciate having as an audio book !!!

Terribly sad, but also hopeful

Ravi is a brilliant philosopher. How he is able to articulate deep ideological concepts to compare and contrast while digging deeper into constructs of each belief system between Jesus and Buddha is nothing less than a gift. Absolutely amazing!
