Stefan Johnson 4-12-2026 | 500 Witnesses, an Empty Tomb, and a Piece of Broiled Fish: The Case for the Resurrection

"You ask me how I know He lives? He lives within my heart." It's a great hymn - but is that really the best answer we can give? The subjective experience of knowing Jesus is real and it matters. But when doubts creep in, when someone pushes back on your faith, or when a long-time believer quietly wonders if any of this is actually true, you need more than feelings. You need evidence. Stefan Johnson walks through the hard, historical case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ - from Thomas physically touching the nail marks, to the disciples watching Jesus chew and swallow a piece of broiled fish, to Paul's bold claim that over 500 eyewitnesses were still alive and available to interview. The burial, the sealed tomb, the Roman guards, the eyewitness testimony recorded in Acts 2 through 5 - it all adds up. Christianity is not a blind leap. The resurrection happened, and the evidence is stronger than you might think.
