| 4/1/26 | Ep. 413: Eyewitnesses: Five Evidences for Easter | Can we really trust the resurrection accounts of Jesus? This episode explores the powerful testimony of eyewitnesses who saw the risen Christ. From the disciples to over 500 people at once, and even skeptics like James and Paul, the resurrection wasn’t a private event. It was widely witnessed and boldly proclaimed. Teens and young adults will discover why these testimonies are reliable, how they dismantle common doubts like hallucination theories, and why these witnesses were willing to suffer and die for what they saw. Rooted in 1 Corinthians 15, this episode reminds us that if Jesus didn’t rise, our faith is meaningless. But because He did, we can live with confidence, hope, and purpose.Listen and Subscribe:[Apple Podcasts] | [Spotify]Connect with Us:Website: www.guidedbyfaith.netYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GuidedbyFaithPodcastInstagram: @guidedbyfaith_podcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review on your favorite podcast platform and share it with friends who might benefit from this message.***Pick up a copy of Jay’s new Journal: Renewed: The 365-Day Christian Gratitude Journal https://amzn.to/3MLWavlGuided By Faith is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.For more information visit www.ChristianParenting.org | 7m 47s | ||||||
