50. Rerelease: Evidence for the Resurrection (with Rick Townsend & Brian Prascher)

Belief in the resurrection of Jesus is central to our faith. And as we look back at what is recorded in scripture we see solid evidence that the events described that day really happened. The best part is that you don’t have to be a scholar or have a degree to understand it! The resurrection is a story of ultimate hope. We know how the story ends, but how did it happen? Why was it necessary? What is the life-changing power of the cross? In this episode, Rick, Brian and Eric dive into the rich evidence of the resurrection of Christ and what that means for us today. Understanding these facts helps equip us to enter hard conversations about our faith with knowledge and love.Show notes1 Corinthians 15:3-5, 17-191 John 5:13Books:⁠Can We still Believe the Bible ⁠by Craig Blomberg⁠Unshakable Truth⁠ by Josh McDowell & Sean McDowell⁠The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus⁠ by Gary Habermas & Michael Licona⁠Evidence That Demands a Verdict⁠ by Josh McDowell⁠Person of Interest⁠ by J.
