So, you were brought up believing in Jesus, but now you have doubts? You've been told that nobody ever rises from the dead, and that the gospels are well-intentioned fables? That scientists and historians have proven the resurrection can't be true? That to be a Christian you have to "check your brain at the door" and go on faith alone? Don't believe everything you hear! The reality is that your faith can be a confident, evidence-based decision. This book exposes the weaknesses of skeptical counterarguments and affirms the solid, factual foundation of Christianity. This is a readable introduction to the major areas of debate about the resurrection without getting too deeply into academics, theology, and philosophy. Topics include the crucifixion, burial, empty tomb, and post-resurrection appearances, among others. Careful attention is paid to acknowledging sources and explaining alternate theories about critical events before, during, and after the crucifixion. Scripture is effectively included within each chapter. The result is an engaging, thoughtful, and concise academic work that will be accessible to any reader. Each chapter includes a short bibliography and a few questions for reflection and discussion.
