The Christ Commission - by Og Mandino (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In this dramatic, inspirational novel from the acclaimed author of The Greatest Salesman in the World, a skeptic is transported back to ancient Jerusalem, where he discovers the true power of the greatest story ever told.

Was the resurrection a hoax?

In front of eight million TV viewers, mystery author Matt Lawrence bragged he could prove Christ was actually stolen from the tomb and never really rose from the dead . . . if he were given just one week back in ancient Jerusalem. That night, Lawrence got his wish. A knock-out punch took him right out of this world and landed him in Biblical Judea in 36 A.D., just six years after the execution of Jesus at Golgotha.

In relentless pursuit of his investigation, Lawrence walked the same streets Jesus walked, visited the same places . . . and found himself facing the same dangers. Eyewitness reports might lead him to a discovery that would shake the world--but will he live long enough to tell the 20th century that he just solved the greatest mystery of all time?
