Query: A great introduction

I have a hard time understanding how anyone who has read this book can find Mclaren to be "an emergent heretic not affirming the physical resurrection of Christ." This book is a friendly and concise introduction to the study of the historical Jesus. It is illuminating and not at all heretical. Have the people who speak this way read the book or are they just going off of what their local homogenized Christian subculture says? N.T. Wright and Dallas WIllard are two of my favorite teachers, one reason why I resonated so strongly with this book as Mclaren thanks them for the majority of the content in his writing.
