With a biblically based knowledge of three resurrections, the Church must confront our shortchanging of God's goodness, intellectual brilliance, and the outcome of His plans.

Jim Strahan: In this book, I will demonstrate how the writings of Moses, John, and Paul, speak to three resurrections, and I will connect them to Paul’s experience when he was caught up to the third heaven. I will also present twenty-one other scriptural references that reveal how this underlying pattern of “threes” spans from Genesis to Revelation.
Dr. David Konstan, professor of Classics at NYU following three decades at Brown: You know that what you have to say is important, and you invite your reader to carry on a dialogue. You defend the idea of a third resurrection with due citation of texts, and make a very strong case for it.
Boyd Purcell, PHD: I am highly impressed with Jim Strahan’s ability to logically and systematically analyze The Holy Bible in depth, from historical, mathematical, and scientific perspectives. Even if readers do not agree with this author on the three resurrections and the third heaven, they can learn a lot by carefully reading and studying this book, seeing that the Bible is even more symbolic than what they may have ever heard or thought.
Michael Riley, Electrical Engineer, and co-author of “Is God Fair? What about Gandhi?”: To the prospective reader, I would like to encourage you to drink deeply from the ideas and arguments in Jim’s book, for you have likely never heard or seen them before–a merging of Scriptures into a belief that today’s Christianity in general, not only does not teach, but likely has never even considered. The number three appears predominantly throughout Scripture. In this amazing book, you will learn of a novel use of this number that explains Paul’s use of the phrase, “each man in his own order.” Intrigued? Well, the answer this book gives is a solid and meaningful explanation of it. And there is more, much more. May you enjoy the exploration.

Jim Strahan graduated from St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, where he received a degree in mathematics and physics. Afterward, he had a rewarding and successful career as an Industrial Engineer at UPS. After UPS, he retired a second time from The University of Texas at San Antonio, where he managed their transportation department. He is married and has been blessed with two children and five grandchildren.

While being transferred across the country with UPS, he served as a deacon, elder, and teacher in churches he attended. While working for UTSA, he was able to co-host a Christian radio show for a year and wrote a book called “The Brightness Around Him.” He also co-authored another book, “Is God Fair? What about Gandhi?”

In retirement, He loves to play golf and teach his grandchildren to fish. Even more, he loves to read books by other Christians, and study God’s Word.

At the age of seven, Jesus revealed Himself to Jim in a very special way. As a result, Jim believes this book is the one he was born to write. He also believes that God is writing all of our stories, and one day, looking back with clarity, we will be able to see His miraculous intervention in all of our lives, as He was molding and shaping us into His image and likeness.
