There are some things which, if they are true, change everything.

If Jesus rose from the dead, it would transform what we think of God and how we see ourselves. We could make sense of some of the deepest mysteries of our existence and enjoy real hope in our everyday lives.

But can a rational person actually believe that Jesus rose from the dead?

Mike Hood wants to show you that you can. In this short, personable book, he addresses questions like…

why do any of us believe what we believe about life after death? what makes us hesitate to change our view of Jesus or God? what historical evidence is there for the resurrection? what will it mean for our lives now if there is life after death?

Bringing together thoughtful examination of the evidence and real-life stories from people who have come to believe in Jesus’ resurrection, The If That Changes Everything shows how Christianity fits into and makes sense of our deepest questions and desires. Readers will be encouraged to see that faith in Jesus is both reasonable and life-changing in the best way.

Includes appendices by respected scholars John Lennox and John Dickson.
