Is Easter Unbelievable?

Four Questions Everyone Should Ask About the Resurrection Story

The resurrection of Jesus from the dead is an extraordinary thing to believe. Such a supernatural event is the stuff of make-believe, many think. Yet millions of Christians around the world believe that Jesus' resurrection was a real, historical event. Indeed, "if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith" and Christians are "of all people most to be pitied." (1 Corinthians 15)

In this concise book, respected apologist Rebecca McLaughlin outlines the evidence that Jesus really did rise from the dead and why it's the best news ever.

Rebecca McLaughlin gained a PhD from Cambridge University and a theology degree from Oak Hill Seminary in London before working at The Veritas Forum. She is the author of the award-winning Confronting Christianity: 12 Hard Questions for the World's Largest Religion and a regular contributor for The Gospel Coalition.

Ideal to give away at Easter outreach services and events, as well as to give to new Christians wanting to remind themselves of the evidence for their faith.

Short and Simple, but Limited

I read Is Easter Unbelievable? by Rebecca McLaughlin and found it less engaging than I hoped. It’s a short booklet that asks four questions about the Resurrection: Did Jesus really live in history? Is it fair for one person to die for another? How can a rational person believe Jesus rose from the dead? And does anyone genuinely want to live forever? The questions are interesting, and the writing is clear, but the answers feel very simplified and assume a certain perspective. McLaughlin often argues that Christianity exists, Jesus was resurrected, and she uses analogies like “Disney’s Frozen without Elsa,” which didn’t resonate with me personally. While the book is brief and easy to read, I’m not sure that someone completely new to Christianity would find it easy to understand. It assumes some familiarity or willingness to approach the questions from a Christian perspective, which might make it harder for true beginners. Overall, it’s a quick read and could spark reflection for some readers, but for me, it didn’t connect very deeply.
