More Than a Carpenter (Tract) by Josh McDowell

Jesus worked for most of his 33 years on earth as a carpenter, following the profession of his stepfather, before spending three years in public ministry. Was this carpenter just a great teacher or something more? He made huge claims about himself, including that he was God. Was he deluded or was he right?

This tract challenges readers to answer Jesus’ question for themselves: Who do you say I am?
