In case you missed it, last week I ran a seven-part series on the most climactic event in all of history: the Resurrection of Jesus from the dead.
Is it true? Did the Bible get it right? Are there other plausible alternatives? Wading through Flannery O’Conner, myth-spinning fishermen, Homer’s Iliad, legendary body-snatchers, a crucified Judas, the Battle of Waterloo, and hallucinating ghost-whisperers, I lay out the reasons why the Resurrection is not just a good story, but a literal, historical reality.
The whole series would be a perfect read as we move into Easter, that grand celebration that the Resurrection is real.
So read the posts, print them out, pass them along, and enjoy!
