About this eBook
What would you do, given the second chance of a lifetime?
Like most men in their thirties, Lazarus has plans that don't involve dying. He's busy. Life is good.
But he can't cheat destiny.
Lazarus dies. Jesus weeps. Lazarus returns to life. This part we all know.
But as Lazarus is about to find out, returning from the dead isn't easy. He thinks he wants a second chance at life, but what will he do when he gets it?
