The Jesus Discoveries

10 Historic Finds That Support the Truth of Christianity

Explore compelling archaeological discoveries that support the authenticity of the Bible, the resurrection of Jesus, and the reasonableness of Christianity. From an acclaimed biblical scholar and ministry leader, this work explores the Shroud of Turin, the Magdalen Papyrus, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and more.

In an age of growing skepticism, many demand hard evidence before believing anything is true—especially when it comes to Jesus and the Bible. A kind of "artifacts or it didn't happen" attitude. Perhaps nowhere is this attitude more prevalent than when considering the claims of Christianity. The irony of this is that there are centuries of archaeological discoveries that support the narratives found in the Bible. Lost cities and civilizations, found. Lost art and technology, rediscovered. Lost documents, retrieved.

Okay, fine, the skeptic says. I'll give you cities and art. But what about Jesus? There's no actual evidence that he ever lived, right? Wrong.

In this eye-opening, faith-fortifying book from acclaimed New Testament scholar and minister Jeremiah Johnston, you'll encounter ten of the most compelling historic finds that corroborate the truth claims found in the Bible regarding who Jesus said he was, when and where He lived, His claims and aims, how His life ended, and how that wasn't the end of His story. Far more than a tour of the past, The Jesus Discoveries connects His story with your story, perhaps in ways you've never before considered—revealing how Jesus's story changes your story.
