Yesterday I issued an appeal for scholars who are willing and able to provide a blurb about my book, written for a general audience, The Burial of Jesus: History and Faith<\/em>, which will be coming out in a second edition from Patheos Press<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Today, I\u2019m asking whether there are any church professionals \u2013 pastors, youth ministers, etc. \u2013 who have read the book and can comment on it from a religious perspective. If so, then please let me know, or contact Patheos Press directly<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thank you in advance!<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
