"Always be prepared," wrote the apostle Peter, "to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." Reading and digesting this book will help.
Gary R. Habermas begins his apologetic for Christianity by demonstrating the historicity of the resurrection of Christ. He then connects the resurrection to several key tenets of Christian theology, through paths not only historical, but also philosophical, counseling, and experiential. The resurrection, Habermas shows, is the central belief for every Christian, whether that person believes it was an actual historical event or not. But it is Habermas' illustration that Jesus quite literally rose bodily from the dead that makes this book so unique. The resurrection is not only the foundation for Christian belief past and present, but also the basis for future hope. What, for instance, does the resurrection of Jesus have to teach us about our own fear of death? Habermas' answers to this and other questions proves how essential the resurrection is to living a Christian life, and gives us great hope for the future.Review Quotes
"This is a book that 'pulls it all together.' I learned something fresh and new about the resurrection in virtually everyone of its chapters. No one acquainted with the spirit and content of this book could possible see the claims about Christianity regularly found in such books as The Da Vinci Code as anything but historical errors of the first order." --Richard Brian Davis, Tyndale University College
