Of the many world religions, only one claims that its founder returned from the grave. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the very cornerstone of Christianity.

But a dead man coming back to life? In our sophisticated age, when myth has given way to science, who can take such a claim seriously? Some argue that Jesus never died on the cross. Conflicting accounts make the empty tomb seem suspect.

How credible is the evidence for the resurrection? Focusing his award winning skills as a legal journalist on history's most compelling enigma, Lee Strobel retraces the startling findings that led him from atheism to belief. Drawing on expert testimony first shared in his book The Case for Christ, Strobel examines the Medical Evidence, the Evidence of the Missing Body and The Evidence of Appearances.

Customer Reviews

For anyone in search of scientific data regarding Jesus' death.
Review by Anonymous | 22.04.2008

The book is very short and is basically divided in three parts. Each part has a different angle from which the evidence is tackled, and all appeal to different people.

This book is excellent for anyone who wants to picture what happened to someone undergoing a Roman Trial and really brings to life the suffering that this brought.

All the book is completely based on scientific evidence has no underlying assumptions, and all can be cross-checked.

At the end, the conclusion provides an opportunity to put all this evidence in practice.

I would recommend this book to anyone, but must be previously warned of rather graphic and violent, but realistic language.

Excellent resource for Easter. Our church offered them free for any who wanted one and some took them for friends and family.
