"A thoughtful approach to this intriguing collection of accounts of Christians throughout history who have claimed visions of Jesus. This should resonate with mystics and more philosophical Christian readers alike." --Publishers Weekly "In Seeing Jesus, Hudson not only helps us view Christ through the quirky, surprising, and even bizarre lenses of our spiritual ancestors, but he also invites us to question the ways we remake Christ in our own image today. Equal parts visual album, historical inquiry, and opportunity for personal spiritual examen--wholly intriguing!" --Sarah Arthur, editor of At the Still Point: A Literary Guide to Prayer in Ordinary Time "This wise, witty, fun, thought-provoking, and erudite book includes fascinating details throughout. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer or a little bit of both, you will enjoy this wonderful ride through history, encountering charlatans, saints, and ordinary people who've laid claim to extraordinary visions of Jesus." --Ann Spangler, bestselling author of Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus "Robert Hudson's fascinating new book is a feast for the eyes, the mind, and the heart. His beautifully crafted prose and well-chosen artistic representations inspire even as they challenge us to keep our eyes open for our own divine 'sightings.' This is a book of profound human pondering and deeply spiritual significance.


" --Terry Glaspey, author of Discovering God through the Arts and75 Masterpieces Every Christian Should Know "Robert Hudson's lively, open-hearted, open-minded reflections on the lives and claims of Christian mystics invite believers to consider what these impassioned, intuitive, Spirit-driven people may have to teach us about how we live in the company of saints, surrounded by clouds of witnesses." --Marilyn McEntyre, author of Caring for Words in a Culture of Liesand Dear Doctor: What Doctors Don't Ask, What Patients Need to Say "Robert Hudson coaches readers to hike high among the spiritual pillars of old and the moderns. As a good guide, he knows where we may stumble and where we need to pause. With sure prose and storytelling, Hudson enlivens anecdotal histories of the sinner-saints who have laid claim to this gift: seeing Jesus." --Cynthia Beach, author of The Surface of Waterand Creative Juices.
