This small book by Josh McDowell puts into simple terms what he discovered as he sought to disprove Christianity and ended up embracing it. For every objection that has been raised, the author presents clear evidence making the case for Jesus being the Christ, for His being a part of the mystery known as the Trinity, and for the veracity of His resurrection after death in the worst form of capital punishment ever devised. If you have some doubt about the Bible accounts of Jesus' life, or know someone in your circle who does, this is an excellent starting point for answering common questions. Revised in 2009, this updated edition includes contributions by Josh's son, Sean. 155 pgs, pb.

Description
Publisher's Description of More than a Carpenter
Skeptic Josh McDowell thought Christians were out of their minds. He ridiculed and insulted them, then decided to combat them with his own robust research to disprove the claims of Jesus Christ. To his surprise, he discovered that the evidence suggested exactly the opposite―that Jesus, instead of being simply a first-century Hebrew carpenter, was so much more. Josh went on to write this inspirational book on Christian apologetics, More Than a Carpenter, which has sold over 16 million copies and transformed countless lives.
