Limbaugh, a practicing attorney and former professor of law, approaches the canonical gospels with the same level of scrutiny he would apply to any legal document and asks all the necessary questions about the story of Jesus told through Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. His analysis of the texts becomes profoundly personal as he reflects on his own spiritual and intellectual odyssey from determined skeptic to devout Christian. Ultimately, Limbaugh concludes that the words Christians have treasured for centuries stand up to his exhaustive inquiry--including his examination of historical and religious evidence beyond the gospels--and thereby affirms Christian faith, spirituality, and tradition.\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eJesus is on trial\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom popular culture to the halls of academia, Christianity is under attack.
