What Jesus Did

Theodore Parker Ferris,

About this book

What Jesus Did by Theodore Parker Ferris is a thoughtful and accessible exploration of the life and ministry of Jesus, written by a respected Episcopal priest and theologian. Rather than focusing solely on doctrine or theological abstraction, Ferris emphasizes the actions of Jesus—his teachings, healings, and encounters with ordinary people—as the clearest window into his mission and meaning.

Ferris organizes the book around key moments in the Gospels, from the calling of disciples and the Sermon on the Mount to the parables, miracles, and ultimately the Passion and Resurrection. His prose is clear, compassionate, and pastoral, reflecting a concern not only for historical accuracy but also for spiritual relevance. Each chapter invites readers to see how Jesus' deeds illuminate his identity and purpose, while also suggesting how his example continues to challenge and inspire modern life.

Written during the mid-20th century, What Jesus Did reflects Ferris's gift for bridging scholarship and devotion. The book avoids heavy-handed dogma, instead offering reflections accessible to both the faithful seeking spiritual growth and general readers interested in understanding the figure of Jesus in his historical and religious context. It remains a compelling resource for personal study, group discussion, or anyone drawn to the enduring question of how the life of Jesus speaks across centuries.
