Too Good to Be False: How Jesus' Incomparable Character Reveals His Reality

by Tom Gilson

Book Overview

What if we take the story of Jesus seriously--as a story? Skeptics urge us to do that--it's "only a story," they say, a legend just like many other god-stories from ancient days. Why do we treat it as anything more than that? Too Good To Be False takes up that question with an approach no author has taken in close to a century. This book shows that although the skeptics' question may be a fine one, the answer they give is as far from truth as it could be. Jesus' character is unlike any other. No other hero--whether of history, myth, imagination, or legend--has loved as he loved, led as he led, cared as he cared, or understood himself as Jesus understood himself. Christians reading this book will encounter Jesus in fresh, worshipful new ways, and skeptics may discover his character is too unique, too consistent, and entirely too good to be false. Includes a study guide for small group discussion.
