Episode 3 - How could you say belief in God is reasonable?

May, 9 2020
Ben Cachiaras and Luke Erickson

It comes down to Jesus. He is a historical figure who did exist 2,000 years ago. And sources claim he died and came back to life. But how could you even begin to say that it’s reasonable that Jesus rose from the dead? We gotta do something with that. Join us as we examine the resurrection and explore this scientific hurdle about a dead man coming back to life.
