Summary
'Chris is not an “ivory tower” academic. He is a plain speaking, sound thinking pastor who communicates to every day people in language that they can understand and to which they can easily relate. If you are wondering if Jesus Christ really did come back to life after the crucifixion, Chris says ( and I agree with him) that you can know- because there is real historical evidence. ' - Reverend John Soper, Church Planter and former Vice President for Church Ministries of the Christian and Missionary Alliance

We have this thing called Christianity that started on the other side of the world towards the middle of the 1st century, and then it spread and spread and spread.

It all began with a man named Jesus from the small town of Nazareth. He claimed to be, and was believed to be, the Messiah of the Jews. But like others who claimed to be the Messiah around this general time, Jesus died.

So why did his movement continue while all the others faded into obscurity?

Francis asks challenging questions like:

Is there evidence for Jesus’ resurrection?
How do we know the disciples did not make it up in order to start a new movement?
Is it possible they all had grief hallucinations, and only thought they saw him risen?
Can we trust the New Testament manuscript copies that we have?
Does it even matter if it’s true?
How does Jesus’ resurrection affect me?
If Jesus did not rise again, what happened?

In Part 1 of this book, Francis examines the six most popular theories that have developed over the last 2,000 years.

In Part 2 of this book, Francis deals more with what it means for us personally and philosophically, why it is relevant, and how it should impact our longing for purpose, belonging, beauty and security.
