Vocal Point-Dr. Kenneth Stevenson

Topic: The Shroud of Turin.

Some people claim there is scientific evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is the Shroud of Turin, many people quickly dismiss as fakes. But is that fair? The Shroud of Turin, a linen cloth 14 feet by 3 feet, contains the image of a man who was badly scourged, was crucified, wore a crown of thorns, and was stabbed in the chest with a Roman spear. It is purported to be the burial of Jesus Christ. Dr. Kenneth Stevenson participated in the intense scientific study of the Shroud itself in 1978, along with about 40 space-age scientists, most of whom were American. Instead of proving the Shroud a fake, as they expected to happen in ten minutes, they were amazed by it on a number of scientific fronts. They did conclude this: “It is not the product of an artist.” Dr. Stevenson has written some books on the Shroud. His latest is called, The Shroud of Turin: The Perfect Summary for Everyone. He co-wrote this book with Dr. Brian Donley Worrell. Dr. Kenneth Stevenson joins Jerry Newcombe on Vocal Point to discuss the Shroud. www.theshroudofturin.org
