Ep. 66 – Examining the evidence for Easter

from Sharpening Arrows · host Victor Joecks

The extraordinary claims that Christians make about Easter are backed up by extraordinary evidence. Parental pause point questions: 1. Why do you think Christmas gets more attention than Easter? (4:10) 2. How do you think the story of Easter sounds to a non-believer? (5:17) 3. Which of The Great Eight Questions would you use in response to this argument? (7:56) 4. Is there evidence outside the Bible for Jesus' existence and resurrection? (15:32) 5. How many original copies are there of works from 100 AD and earlier? (20:33) The Great 8 Questions: 1. What happens next? 2. Has this been tried before? 3. Is there a principle involved? 4. What are the trade-offs? 5. What do you mean by that? 6. Is this an appeal to emotion or logic? 7. Am I focused on the speaker or the argument? 8. What does the Bible say?

Arrows in the Making (AIM) Cody and Caitlin Castellani We may not be perfect, but our prayer and aspiration is to empower and inspire Christian families to sharpen, target, and launch themselves, their children, and future generations—along with a sprinkle of fun for good measure! Christ serves as the ultimate role model for living boldly and courageously in faith. You are not alone in your desire to nurture your family in the faith and to raise your children in a countercultural way! “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭2‬, ESV "Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate." Psalms 127:3-6, ESV
