As a result, Christianity's most important historical fact—the resurrection—is often the most misunderstood, relegated to Easter and funeral services, creating a powerless Christianity. In Body of Proof, acclaimed apologist and scholar Dr. Jeremiah Johnston sets out to show why Jesus's victory over death is central to a believer's faith.

Even self-described Christians question whether God would consign anyone to hell. Msgr.
