What to expect
He lived and died over 2,000 years ago, fulfilling expectations that existed long before his birth, mystically foretold by astrologers for hundreds of years-yet the rulers of his day dreaded his coming.
This humble builder-teacher became a magnet for the poor and down trodden, a symbol of love and mercy, who transformed the lives and restored the health and purpose in all who encountered him. The local elite and governing rulers eventually tortured him and put him to death in the most violent and public of ways. Yet that was only the beginning ...
In the years since, billions of people have dedicated their lives to this man and have testified to his divinity and truth. To others, he is little more than a rebel who was killed by one of the most brutal empires in human history.
How we each respond to this story dictates the course of our lives. And it all rests on the great mystery that occurred at the end of his life-a supernatural event that he had predicted with utter clarity.
Did this humble stonemason tell the truth? Could one man really be the focal point of the universe?
From the #1 international bestselling author of Mud, Sweat, and Tears and the face of adventure himself, Bear Grylls, this story will prepare you to make up your own mind. But wherever your journey takes you, this is arguably The Greatest Story Ever Told.
