ADA, Mich. — Bethany House, a division of Baker Publishing Group, is pleased to announce that The Jesus Discoveries: 10 Historic Finds That Bring Us Face-To-Face with Jesus by Dr. Jeremiah Johnston is #6 on the New York Times Bestsellers List, #73 on USA TODAY’s Bestselling Booklist, and ranked #1 on Amazon Books.

“We knew this book was special from the start. Jeremiah has a remarkable ability to synthesize biblical research and theology and bring it down to the personal, faith-fortifying level. Plus, the findings he shares are absolutely fascinating,” said Jeff Braun, Bethany House Executive Acquisitions Editor.

The Jesus Discoveries unpacks centuries of archaeological finds that confirm Jesus wasn’t just a story—he was a real person who walked the earth.


In the book, Johnston guides readers through ten of the most significant archaeological and historical finds ever uncovered, each illuminating the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth. From the Shroud of Turin and the James Ossuary to the Pontius Pilate Stone, the Magdalen Papyrus, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, Johnston examines physical artifacts, ancient manuscripts, and historical records that corroborate the Gospel accounts with striking clarity.

Jeremiah J. Johnston, PhD, is an elected member of the preeminent New Testament scholarly guild Studiorum Novi Testamenti Societas (SNTS) and ministers internationally as president of Christian Thinkers Society. Jeremiah loves the local church and serves as pastor of apologetics and cultural engagement at Prestonwood Baptist Church near Dallas, Texas, and Senior Fellow of Christian Origins, Dallas Baptist University. He is the author of several books, including Body of Proof. Learn more at ChristianThinkers.com.
