Auferstehung?

Resurrection is a foreign word for many. The biblical Easter texts sound too fairy-tale-like when taken literally. But what kind of texts are they and what do they convey? What do they claim about this Jesus, who represented a highly relevant message of life, justice, and freedom and was executed on the cross? Why did he have to die? What is meant by his resurrection and the Easter experiences of his disciples? What can resurrection mean in life and in death? What is the provocative sting of this message that persists to this day? In this book, Hans Kessler examines the sources and foundations of the belief in resurrection and traces them back to one fundamental question about the Christian understanding of God: Who is this God that Christians confess as the one who desires the comprehensive and limitless life of all people?.
