Jesus The Sufi by Ed Gorman

A provocative reimagining of Jesus as a mystic whose teachings resonate with Sufi spirituality, arguing that his emphasis on love, inner transformation, and direct experience of the divine aligns more with the inward, devotional path of Sufism than with rigid institutional religion; the book traces parallels between Christian and Islamic mystical traditions, examines sayings and parables through a contemplative lens, and invites readers to see the heart of his message as a call to personal union with God rather than external observance.
