The Case for Easter
Chapter 1 (excerpt)
Did Jesus of Nazareth really rise from the dead? Of the many world religions,
only one claims that its founder returned from the grave. The resurrection of
Jesus Christ is the very cornerstone of Christianity. But a dead man coming
back to life? Some argue that Jesus never died on the cross.
Conflicting accounts make the empty tomb seem suspect. And post-crucifixion sightings
of Jesus have been explained in psychological terms.How credible is the evidence
for—and against—the resurrection? Focusing his award-winning skills as a
legal journalist on history’s most compelling enigma, Lee Strobel retraces the
startling findings that led him from atheism to belief. Written in a
hard-hitting journalistic style, The Case for Easter probes the core issues
of the resurrection. Jesus Christ, risen from the dead: superstitious myth or
life-changing reality?

Discipline: Bridge Between Goals and Accomplishment
Habits are things we do without thinking. Smart people have good and bad habits.
Developing good habits starts with a trigger, follow a defined routine and a reward for accomplishment.
We need to do what we should (James 4.17). This may mean resisting temptation (1 Corinthians 10.13). Samuel Smiles
reminds us that a thought becomes an act; an act becomes a habit; a habit becomes our character; a character
becomes our destiny.
