By uncovering the process that gave rise to the famous Gospel stories, David Catchpole opens a door into each writer's distinctive world of conviction, faith, struggle, and controversy. Catchpole shows that the characters of the resurrection narratives - Jesus himself, the women and men, the ecclesiastical heavyweights, and the "nobodies" of Christian history - embody issues which affect the "resurrection people" of any time, including our own.
