Many Christians are afraid to talk about their faith for fear of not knowing what to say. How can they prepare themselves? That's the purpose of Handbook of Bible Evidences—written by two bestselling apologetics experts, John Ankerberg and John Weldon. They provide clear and thoughtful responses to the tough questions seekers are most likely to ask—questions such as... "Hasn't evolution proved that Genesis is wrong?" "Isn't the Bible filled with historical and scientific errors?" "What evidence is there that Jesus rose from the dead?" Focused on topics related to the Bible, Jesus Christ, and creation, this powerful resource deals head-on with false assumptions and frequent misconceptions people have. And it's based on more than 30 years of apologetics research and ministry to unbelievers. A superb tool for helping readers know how to share their faith with confidence!

Are the New Testament documents reliable? Who wrote them? And when? Do the Gospel writers contradict each other in describing the different places Jesus appeared to His disciples after the Resurrection? Do they contradict one another in other areas? How many women first came to the tomb on Easter morning? How many angels appeared at the tomb? One as Matthew states or two as Luke & John recorded? Do Mark & Luke conflict in their reports about the disciples on the road to Emmaus? Did the Resurrection appearances of Christ really happen or were they only hallucinations? What compelling evidence exists that proves the Resurrection of Christ actually happened? Is this evidence sufficient to convince skeptics & those trained in law?
