More Than a Carpenter

Please be advised this listing is for the mass market paperback. They send you the small paperback which is harder to read.

When I ordered this version of More than a Carpenter by Josh McDowell I wasn't expecting to recieve two books in one but was pleasantly surprised. The majority of this book is taken up by "The Life of Christ" a novel-like joining of the four gospels with little bits and pieces added to help the reader understand exactly what happened in that corner of the world two thousand years ago. It's a very helpful tool both for brushing up on the gospels before reading the other book under the cover and for individuals who might be confused about how the timelines of the four gospels fit together. Josh McDowell's book is something of a watered down version of his texts "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" in which he researches the Christian Bible. Due to his educational background the texts "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" came out something like a legal textbook and many find it both difficult and boring, but "More than a Carpenter" summerizes the results of his research in a format that is easy to read and understand.
