Unbelievable? 4 Jun 2011 - Making the resurrection add up
Summary
"The Easter Challenge" is regularly issued by atheists and sceptics. Can Christians provide a coherent account the events of the resurrection of Jesus that harmonises the apparent differences between the four Gospel accounts?
Jay Smith is a Bible scholar and evangelist who says that it can be done. He debates with agnostic sceptic Stephen Pilcher on the details of the Gospel accounts. How many women went to the tomb? Were there angels present? Who did Jesus appear to?
