This book reminds me of a mirror ball. Murray Rae explores how God brought and is bringing renewal through resurrection. Each chapter of this book reflects the truth from different angles. The book involves biblical studies, theology and ethics – all expanding on the central premise of the renewal of the resurrection.

The author wisely sidesteps the quicksand of historical debates and apologetics, instead celebrating the many ways that the cross brings liberation to the world. The book is easy to read and thoroughly researched. Most of all it is edifying, encouraging hope and faith for the present and the future.

I find that this book enriching my theological knowledge by exploring the demand of bodily resurrection of Christ. This is important issue in a digital age like now that undermine the meaning of body. Thankful to God, that resurrection means the new era of transformation of all things in the history of humankind.
