Synopses & Reviews
The Shroud of Turin has long been the most thoroughly investigated piece of cloth in the world. And yet, the mysterious image of a tortured and crucified man that rests on its fibers remains utterly inexplicable, as well as controversial.
Best-selling author Paul Badde does not attempt to answer the unanswerable question: Is the Shroud of Turin the burial cloth of Jesus of Nazareth? Rather he sets out on a journey through Europe and the Holy Land in order to explore another, almost more intriguing, question: What if it is?
With the investigative skills of a seasoned journalist, Badde dives into the rich and textured history of the Shroud and that other relic honored as a burial cloth of Christ - the Veil of Manoppello. With a mind open to the possibility that God intervenes in the life of men and speaks to human hearts, he visits the relics with the wonder of a pilgrim and asks, What is it that God could be saying to us through these pieces of cloth which confound the world?
