"The good news of the gospel is not just that Jesus died for our sins but also that he rose victoriously from the grave. In this book, Patrick Schreiner presents a convincing case that the resurrection of Christ is true, good, and beautiful. I hope this book gets a wide reading because it grounds our salvation in the reality that Jesus has conquered Satan, sin, and death. Thanks be to God."--J. T. English, Lead Pastor, Storyline Church, Arvada, Colorado; Associate Professor of Christian Theology, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary; author, Deep Discipleship; coauthor, You Are a Theologian "Patrick Schreiner's The Hope of the Resurrection isn't merely a defense of the historical truth of the risen Jesus--although Schreiner certainly provides that along the way. It's also a celebration of the beauty and the goodness of the resurrection, coupled with a clear call to live in light of the resurrection.
In a world where not only the truth of the faith is being challenged but also its goodness, this celebration may be the strongest defense of all."--Timothy Paul Jones, Chair of the Department of Apologetics, Ethics, and Philosophy, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary; author, Did the Resurrection Really Happen? "Patrick Schreiner has given us a clear, thoughtful, and deeply encouraging book on the resurrection. He shows why Jesus's conquering of death matters--not only because the resurrection really did happen but also because it affects believers' lives right now. This book will strengthen your faith and renew your hope. I'm glad to recommend it!"--Greg Gilbert,Senior Pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church, Louisville, Kentucky " The Hope of the Resurrection is a fantastic book. Schreiner writes in an accessible and interesting manner with extensive research behind his claims. Given that the resurrection of Jesus is the heart of our faith in terms of truth and spiritual practice, I highly recommend reading and studying this book so that you can truly understand what the resurrection means for you today."--Sean McDowell, Professor of Apologetics, Talbot School of Theology; author, The Fate of the Apostles "The resurrection of Jesus isn't just a moment in history--it's the miracle that defines all of reality.
In The Hope of the Resurrection , Patrick Schreiner beautifully reminds us that the empty tomb not only secures our eternity but also transforms our everyday life. With clarity and depth, Schreiner connects the truth of Christ's victory over death to everything that is true, good, and beautiful in our world. This book will help you see that the resurrection is more than something we celebrate once a year--it's the power we live in every day. I can't recommend it enough."--Vance Pitman,President, Send Network; author, Unburdenedand The Stressless Life.
