brian mclaren has a new book out called the secret message of Jesus. i hate the title and i think i have probably vowed never to buy another book with a title like that again, because it seems to me like a gimmicky marketing tactic and i don’t want to succumb to marketing wizardry quite that easily. but, it is mclaren so i figured i would give it a shot.

i haven’t read the book yet, but judging by the subtitle (uncovering the truth that could change everything), and the current hype involving gnosticism and the da vinci code, i think i know what this secret is.

hint: it involves leonardo da vinci’s painting the last supper.
