BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF JESUS AMONG OTHER GODS WHY JESUS? RAVI ZACHARIAS Rediscovering his truth in an age of mass marketed spirituality. "Ravi Zacharias gives a powerful defense of how Jesus Christ brings meaning and hope to an individual life."—Billy Graham For a true understanding of who Jesus was, there is only one source to go to: The Bible.
