After Jesus, Volume 1 - The Birth of Christianity: The First Twenty Years

Some critics claim that we have little reliable knowledge of Christianity's early development during the 20-year gap between Jesus' resurrection and the first New Testament writings. Barnett disagrees. In this illuminating study, he mines Paul's writings, Acts, Mark and John's Gospels, and Q to present a biblically based, historical reconstruction of this much-debated period. 230 pages, softcover from Eerdmans.
