In the world today, many attempt to deny the validity of the New Testament account regarding the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. This denial is based on the belief that there exists no "objective" evidence proving Jesus even existed, let alone preached a powerful gospel, performed great miracles, and was resurrected from the dead.

The critics who deny the existence of a historical Jesus contend that the only evidence suggesting He really lived comes from the Bible. Further, they contend that the Bible cannot be believed because it was written by men who were less interested in recording factual events than in advancing a religion.

What is the truth? Did Jesus of Nazareth really live? Can the biblical record of His life be trusted? Furthermore, is there real, credible, external evidence that not only proves Jesus Christ lived, but that His life had a profound impact on the course of history?
