The "person of Christ" typically refers to Christology. Christ as having a human nature composed of body and soul and a divine nature.
At any rate, I think you would benefit from Mark Jones' work "Knowing Christ" and John Stott's work "[The Incomparable Christ](https://www.amazon.com/Incomparable-Christ-John-

My top recommendation is Reformed Catholicity: The Promise of Retrieval for Theology and Biblical Interpretation by Allen and Swain. If you haven't read it please do. It's not the easiest read, but well worth the effort.
A close second is Rejoicing in Lament: Wrestling with Incurable Cancer and Life in Christ by Todd Billings. If you or a loved one are suffering, read this right away. If not, read it anyway for when the time comes.
A few more that I have on my list to read, but have not yet read:
