Description

He thought Christianity was a sham. Then it changed his life.

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.

Now, in this revised and updated edition, Josh is joined by his son, Sean McDowell, as they tackle the questions that today’s generation continues to ask:

• “How do I find happiness and meaning in life?”
• “Is it really possible to know the truth about God and Jesus?
• “How can Jesus be the only way?”

Whether you’re a spiritual cynic or a long-time Christian, experience a new perspective on faith through this bestselling, timeless classic on who Jesus really is.

    I gave my life to Christ, & when people call me, “brainwashed,” I simply point them to this book. Josh, you have done a great service to the world with this book. Jesus is indeed the way, the truth, & the life! May God bless us all!

    I am a spiritualist that was raised Christian and while I never denounced Christ or anything I wasn’t really focusing on him in my practice. Shortly after starting this book he came to me and he would give me little messages as I read. This book is great for anyone who wants to feel closer to him.
  • Uses research to support claims.

    This book is perfect for the skeptics and those who mock Christianity Josh had the same belief problems as I and many people have. Why waste your whole life when it’s as simple as following the research and proof of our Beloved Savior.
