Book excerpt: Is it really true? Did Jesus willingly die a horrible death on a cross and then come back to life? The idea seems impossible for our human minds to comprehend, yet the gospel message isn’t complete without both a brutal sacrifice and beautiful resurrection. A Rumor of Hope: The Good News of Easter walks you through the crucifixion and resurrection from the biblical narrative of those who were there. It gives feet to the good news that otherwise seems almost too good to be true.
