Ask A Pastor Ep. 1: How Do We Know the Resurrection Is Real?

Send us Fan Mail

In this first episode of Ask A Pastor, we tackle one of the most foundational questions of the Christian faith: Did the resurrection of Jesus really happen? We walk through the most common theories that attempt to explain it away—hallucinations, visions, impostors, and even the idea of a stolen body—and examine why each one falls short under scrutiny.

Then we turn to the evidence: compelling eyewitness testimony from hundreds of people, the undeniable reality of the empty tomb, and the disciples' dramatic transformation from fearful followers to bold proclaimers willing to die for their faith. We also explore the explosive growth of the early church, the shift to Sunday worship, the consistency of the New Testament accounts, and how the resurrection fulfills a larger prophetic story.

This episode brings clarity to the question by weighing both skepticism and truth, leading to one powerful conclusion: when you follow the evidence, it points to a real, risen Savior—and a moment in history that changed everything.
