Yes, Jesus of Nazareth, son of Mary was a real person. No credible historian disputes this – there is more evidence (both inside and outside the Bible) for his existence than for many other historical figures which we take for granted, such as Julius Caesar.
Whether or not he was the son of God as he claimed is the important question, where faith comes in, and is something we all have to decide for ourselves.
If you’re curious why not come along to a church service and ask some questions afterwards – we love to chat about faith – Muddy Church is a great place start, we go for a walk and have a think and chat about a spiritual topic – no singing or set words to join in with, refreshments round the fire-pit at the end. Or if you;d rather have a private chat, use the contact page to get in touch with a member of the team.
