Did Jesus Really Rise From the Dead?

Carl Olson MTS

Click here to read book sample.

Movies such as Risen and books such as Bill O'Reilly's Killing Jesus raise questions about what really happened to the crucified body of Jesus of Nazareth. Using a popular question-and-answer format, Carl Olson examines the historical evidence concerning Jesus's controversial fate.

Did Jesus really die on the Cross? If so, what became of his body? Was it stolen? Misplaced?

Is the Resurrection a cleverly devised plot to found a new religion? Or a myth? Or a mass hallucination?


Whether you are a believer, a skeptic, or something in between, prepare to be challenged by the logical arguments in this provocative and insightful book.

-----------------------------

“This book argues convincingly that the Resurrection actually occurred and that all the arguments against its historicity have fallen flat, including recent arguments from the New Atheists.”
– Karl Keating, Founder, Catholic Answers

“Carl Olson demonstrates the Resurrection is true! He analyzes and presents the the historical and objective reality of the bodily Resurrection of Jesus Christ. This book will convince even the skeptic.”
– Steve K. Ray, Best-selling author and host of The Footprints of God
