Bowman Jr., by discussing his most recent book which compares some of the foundational truth claims of Christianity with those of Mormonism. Published earlier this year, Rob's book, Jesus' Resurrection and Joseph's Visions: Examining the Foundations of Christianity and Mormonism, compares the evidence for Jesus’ resurrection with the evidence for Joseph’s visions. Bowman demonstrates how the historical data confirm the truth of Jesus’ resurrection and that the accounts of Joseph Smith’s visions are historically unreliable.</p><br><p>For Mormons who have doubts about their religion, this podcast will help them find a more reliable basis for faith in Christ. For Christians, this episode should provide a fresh angle on the historical evidence for the truth of Christianity.</p><br><p>Robert Bowman is a former staff member at Watchman Fellowship and the author of numerous Watchman Fellowship Profiles. He earned a B.A. from California State University, an M.A. in Biblical Studies and Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary, and a Ph.D. in biblical studies at South African Theological Seminary.</p><br><p> <strong>BONUS LINKS</strong>: Here are some additional resources:</p><br><ul> <br><li> <strong>Atheism</strong> Profile by Robert Bowman Jr.: <a href="https://www.watchman.org/profiles/pdf/atheismprofile.pdf">www.watchman.org/profiles/pdf/atheismprofile.pdf</a> </li> <br><li> <strong>Word Faith Movement</strong> Profile by Robert Bowman Jr.: <a href="https://www.watchman.org/profiles/pdf/wordfaithprofile.pdf">www.watchman.org/profiles/pdf/wordfaithprofile.pdf</a> </li> <br><li> <strong><em>The Shack</em></strong> Profile by Robert Bowman Jr.: <a href="https://www.watchman.org/profiles/pdf/shackprofile.pdf">www.watchman.org/profiles/pdf/shackprofile.pdf</a> </li> <br><li> <strong><em>Faith Has Its Reasons: Integrati
