Hasn't Jesus been disproved by modern scholars?
Can Jesus have really risen from the dead?
Surely there must be some other explanation?

In the modern world, we are constantly told that Jesus is merely a myth, and the resurrection story wishful thinking. But what does the evidence say?

Taking the form of a court case, Jesus on Trial lays out the evidence and counter-evidence for Jesus. Author Kel Richards presents an intriguing and entertaining mock trial, with an empty tomb on the exhibits table, and you in the jury box.
