Publisher's summary

Can we know if Jesus actually lived? Have Jesus' followers been a force for good or evil in history? A respected journalist set out to find the answers - not from opinion but from artifacts. The evidence led him to an unexpected conclusion: Jesus really existed and launched the greatest movement for social good in human history.

A first-of-its-kind audiobook for a new generation, Jesus Skeptic takes nothing for granted as it explores whether Jesus actually lived and how his story has changed our world. You'll:

  • Learn what heroes like Martin Luther King, Jr., and Harriet Tubman believed about Jesus
  • Discover how Jesus inspired women's rights, education rights, and modern hospitals
  • See visual proofs of Jesus's impact, never before compiled in one place
  • Be inspired to continue Jesus' fight for human rights, justice, and progress

Jesus Skeptic unveils convincing physical evidence that will enlighten seekers, skeptics, and longtime Christians alike. In a generation that wants to make the world a better place, we can discover what humanity's greatest champions had in common: a Christian faith.

Missing something

This is an incredible book filled with facts and evidence of Jesus at work in our world,
My only complaint is a big one... why didn’t the author read it:-( This disappointed me greatly, I have heard him speak before and I was excited for his enthusiasm in the writing...

Impact of Christians in history

I really loved this book. After listening to it, I was kind of upset and thought that this should be part of history class in public schools.
Because, the most praised people and rights that we have, all come from christianity. It's very odd that that fact is left out.
But knowing what the author researched will make you proud to be a Christian and also will help you to stand your ground as a Christian.
Do this is a very simple to follow and listen to book. Even I, as a simple mechanic can follow and understand.

Well-researched

I was admittedly an established believer before I listened to this audio book, but I appreciated that the author wasn't. His research was quite in depth and covered areas that I think many people may not have been exposed to unless they set out to discover it. Of course, it proves nothing, in the sense that whether a person believes that Jesus is the Christ (and whether that matters to them) is a personal discernment that no one can do for another. However, it is a good listen for anyone who is curious or on the edge when considering the significance of Christianity and Jesus Himself.

Well done!

Clear. Honest. Methodical. As a person who has a faith in Christ, has earned three healthcare and science based degrees and has worked in the field Clinical Research most of my nursing career I deeply appreciate this book. I have a greater perspective of how God began His work in this world that laid the pathway that brought me where I am today. All that is left is for Him to use me in the place that he has me for good and his glory in my home, community, and work like many free thinkers before me who follow Jesus faithfully without shame or regret. Thank you for sharing your investigative journey which lead you to a life of peace and hope found only in Jesus Christ our Lord.
