Josh McDowell is a bestselling Christian apologist, evangelist, and author of over 150 books, including Evidence That Demands a Verdict and More Than a Carpenter. Once an agnostic, he converted to Christianity while investigating its historical claims. He went on to earn degrees from Wheaton College and Talbot Theological Seminary. For decades, McDowell has been a prominent speaker with Campus Crusade for Christ, addressing issues of faith, character, and youth culture worldwide. His work emphasizes historical and legal evidence for Christianity and tackles challenges posed by skepticism and non-Christian beliefs. He lives in California with his wife, Dottie, and is the father of four children, including fellow apologist Sean McDowell.
A good read, combines The life of Jesus and More Than a Carpenter. I enjoyed the two together and bought several to share with other people. A great introduction to the gospels if you have not read the Bible.
Though it was written in 1977, it is still worth reading. A skeptic turned apologist, looks at the life of Jesus Christ. One of the first Christian books I read after become a believer.
