Life in the Face of Death: The Resurrection Message of the New Testament (McMaster New Testament Studies (MNTS))

This book brings into focus the resurrection message of the New Testament. The chapters demonstrate how the resurrection both provides the basis for joyful living now despite the shadow of death and undergirds the Christian belief in a future after death.
