Synopsis

What really happened on the Third Day? Is Christianity built on a terrible mistake or a downright lie? Charles Foster, a barrister, presents the issues surrounding the death and possible resurrection of Jesus in a heated, no-holds-barred debate. The result is a compelling historical, archaeological and theological whodunit - like The Da Vinci Code and The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail, but with the real evidence.

Review

Very often, Christians argue from an internal point of view and really don't address some very real problems with the narrative. However, Foster isn't afraid of those opposed to the physical resurrection of Jesus Christ. Point by point he turns the prosecution's case on it's head, leaving us with questions, and the truth. Jesus is real, He did rise again and lives to offer forgiveness and hope to all who come to Him. Recommended for anyone who struggles with doubt or who deals with those who do. (Carolyn R.
