Compelling book

A well written book for open-minded truth seekers who wish to find answers to questions about faith. The book carefully responds to hard questions about Christianity – the existence and deity of Jesus Christ, the authenticity of the resurrection, probability of fulfilling the messianic prophecies, the validity of the eyewitnesses’ accounts (those who experienced the ministry of Jesus firsthand), the reliability of the testimonies within internal and external sources, etc. The authors presented a remarkable case by sharing discoveries from their personal research in pursuit for the truth. At the end, the authors challenge readers to examine their own belief and to arrive at their own conclusion about the person of Jesus Christ. Is He truly who He says He is? Is He More Than a Carpenter?

the tip of the intellectual iceberg.

Here your investigations into Jesus and christianity can begin. It's a great starting point, compelling enough for some to accept fully and for others to start looking at Jesus/christianity from a more legitimate angle. Christianity is not in antithetical to science or logical thinking. Quite the opposite.
