Jesus Christ: The Resurrection And The Life

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 16, 2022

The Resurrection Of Jesus - The Basis Of Christianity

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 12, 2024

Christianity is grounded in the Resurrection of Jesus, and yet many Christians have never taken the time to look at the available evidence on the subject.

For if the dead are ...read more

Has The Resurrection Changed You?

Jesus is the risen King who is victorious over death, recognized by His disciples, validated by Scripture, and enthroned over all creation. That truth changes our faith, theology, and life. The resurrection also changes our practical living. The resurrection isn't just a doctrine to believe, ...read more
