When Jesus died on the cross, it seemed that all had been lost. Death had won. But after three days in a rich man''s tomb, Jesus appeared . . . alive! The news was so shocking that his followers refused to believe it until they saw him with their own eyes. Then Jesus made some amazing promises. His resurrection would change every aspect of their lives and their futures. In this fascinating look at the claims of the Gospel writers and two thousand years of believing Christians, bestselling author Josh McDowell and his son Sean McDowell examine the compelling evidence and present the facts about the resurrection and what it means for readers today.

The authors provide compelling evidence in this updated classic to help Christians know what they believe, why it is true, and how they communicate biblical truth to a skeptical world.

With over 40 million books sold, bestselling author Josh McDowell is no stranger to creatively presenting biblical truth. Now, partnering with fellow apologist Dave Sterrett, Josh introduces a new series targeted at the intersection of story and truth. The Coffee House Chronicles are short, easily devoured novellas aimed at answering prevalent spiritual questions. Each book in the series tackles a long-contested question of the faith, and then answer these questions with truth through relationships and dialogue in each story. In Who is Jesus, Really?: A Dialogue on God, Man, and Grace, the group of students now meeting at the coffee house at a college town in Texas come face-to-face with the implications of the person and works of Jesus Christ. Their questions and conversations lead them to creatively respond to a well-known Atheist about Jesus'' claims and actions. The other two books in the series: Is the Bible True, Really? and Did the Resurrection Happen, Really? continue the unfolding story at the college campus and the coffee house down the road. In Did the Resurrection Happen, Really?: A Dialogue on Life, Death, and Hope, the college campus is rocked by the news of a drunk driving accident that leaves a classmate dead. Their up-close experience with mortality allies the coffee house discussion group together to really wrestle with the spiritual and eternal ramifications of whether or not Jesus rose from the dead. In Is the Bible True, Really?: A Dialogue on Skepticism, Evidence, and Truth, we meet Nick, a college freshman at a state school in Texas. Nick has his spiritual world turned upside-down with what he hears in an introduction to religion class. His questions turn into conversations as he dialogues with professors, friends, and family about the authenticity and authority of the Bible.
