Resurrection People

"By uncovering the process which gave rise to the famous Gospel stories, David Catchpole opens a door into each writer's distinctive world of conviction and faith, struggle and controversy. He shows that the characters of the resurrection narratives - heavyweights and the 'nobodies' of Christian history - embody issues which affect the 'resurrection people' of any time, including our own." "This book tackles historical topics as well as some controversial issues in New Testament studies, while never losing sight of the question: how should Christian faith today be coloured by the living faith of the gospel writers?"--BOOK JACKET.
