Explore Eyewitness Accounts in 40 Bite-Sized Pieces
Jesus Christ: Just another guru, or Son of God?
Are you a Seeker of Truth, thirsty for meaning in your life, and exploring many options? Are you a skeptic who wants to be sure before you dismiss Christianity? Perhaps you are a new believer, or an older Christian who wants to refresh their faith.
Meet the Real Jesus takes you through forty bite-sized pieces of an ancient biography published in the Bible, so you can make up your own mind.
These are living, breathing accounts, full of conflict and compassion, great courage and narrow escapes, and a hope that emerges from the midst of tragedy.
Meet Jesus Christ, carpenter’s son and friend to the unloveable. Find out what His life and death really means, and why He would rather die than live without you.
