    Let’s start at an obvious place for the week after Easter. The baskets are empty, the colored grass has been vacuumed up. Beautiful cards have been put away. Nice clothes are back in the closet. All that is left are a few jelly beans that no one wants to trust. Easter is over … or, is it?

    We can learn a lot from Thomas that by encountering Jesus and hearing the testimonies of others, we don't have to lose faith, doubt and fail to believe.

    I FIND IT INTERESTING THAT IT WAS THOMAS WHO GETS A BUM RAP AS THE “LONE” DISCIPLE OF DOUBT. WHEN WE SPEAK OF THOMAS, HE IS USUALLY REFERRED TO AS “DOUBTING THOMAS.” ALTHOUGH UNDERSTANDABLE, IT REALLY ISN’T FAIR. ALL THE REMAINING DISCIPLES DOUBTED AS WELL. DEPSITE THEIR JOY OF PROCLAIMING “WE ...read more

    Thomas refused to believe Jesus had risen from the dead. He even stated what proof he would need in order to believe. But when he saw the risen Lord, everything changed!

    Introduction: Thomas isn’t mentioned often in Scripture, but there are examples for each one of us in each instance. We’ve seen that he, like us, had his share of unsettling experiences, as in John 11. Like him, we’ve probably had questions over some of the things, perhaps new revelation or ...read more

    The Lord Jesus intentionally chose a skeptic as one of the 12. Jesus proved beyond any shadow of doubt to the rationalist, Thomas, that He was resurrected from the dead. Thomas died preaching Him in India, because he knew that, "Nailprints don't lie!"
