<br/><br/> Habermas provides evidence that a man named Jesus really did live in Palestine in the first century, using the ordinary canons of historical research (artifactual evidence, inscriptional evidence, and literary evidence). This book is an excellent treatment of the evidence outside of the bible that reveals a pretty good outline of Jesus' life, actions, and how he was thought of by the ancient world. Gary Habermas does a great job of pointing out the facts, while not personally ripping anyone else for their beliefs.
