If you had to select 33 objects throughout history to represent the birth, growth, and effectiveness of Christianity, what would you choose to best reflect God's enduring grace through the centuries? And what narrative would you write that would weave them all together in telling the story of what God is accomplishing in the world? Tangible relics such as these offer rich links of understanding between Christians of the first and 21st centuries.

Bible Gateway interviewed Justin W. Bass about his book, The Bedrock of Christianity: The Unalterable Facts of Jesus' Death and Resurrection (Lexham Press, 2020). |
