Using paintings and vintage photos of the Holy Land, The Jesus Files captures the reality of the events, places, and people in the life of Christ.

Then, dig in and investigate the historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Learn the facts the vast majority of scholars agree on and how the Resurrection is the only explanation that makes sense of them all. Get equipped to give an answer to anyone who asks why they should believe in Jesus Christ.” (The Jesus Files, Doug Powell, Page 3, May 2014)
An insightful overview of the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. This photo essay book goes through historical and biblical evidence for Jesus' claims and the inerrancy of the Bible. Recommended for anyone who wants an analytical (and creatively designed) approach to the story of Jesus.
This book had really great, easy to understand information about Christ. I had never heard of most of these theories that contradict the resurrection (and their fallacies) so those were interesting to read. This would be a great book for a new Christian. The only thing I didn’t like was that some of the font choices were hard to read, and some of the fonts made the name God with a lowercase g, which bothered me.
I read this book because I am a Christian. I believe that if you say that you believe in something, you should know what others say who don’t believe in it. This book takes you on a tour of Jesus life. I also like how small this book is because it could easily fit in my purse and I could read it on my commute.
