Did the resurrection really happen? Explaining and defending our foundational belief

The resurrection of Christ is paramount. Without it our faith is “futile,” says Paul. It is vindication and victory, triumph over tribulation, the defeat of sin, Satan, death and darkness, and help and hope for the world.
But are you confident about it?
This sermon is Part 1 of 2, takes us through John 20:19-31 and responds to five of the most common objections (and conspiracy theories) concerning the resurrection.
It’s no coincidence that casual and casualty sound so much the same. So let’s be deliberate about our resurrection faith — for yourself and for the those you care about who are under continually attack for their beliefs.
Jesus said: “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
