History also records that in the year 483 BC that Buddha who about 80 at the time died from eating ...read more

    How much evidence is necessary for belief? By any measure the evidence of the resurrection of Jesus is sufficient for belief. Why not take that step of faith?

    It seemed all the hopes and dreams of the disciples were dashed when Jesus died on a cross but then came the news His tomb was found empty. His empty tomb held so many promises. We'll consider some of those promises in this lesson.

Judas, one of their own, had betrayed Him and now he was also dead. The crowds that once had flocked to Jesus were no longer around. The events of the last few ...read more
