Was the Resurrection a Hoax?

Jesus rose from the dead!  The tomb is empty!  Alleluia!  This is the central claim of Christianity and without it Christianity is a lie.  Yet, rumors that Jesus never resurrected from the dead have abounded for millennia, and they have intensified during our time where secularism tries to explain away the miraculous and relativism reduces faith to an ethical choice.  In this episode, Christine and Dennis have a little fun debunking many of the popular theories used to claim that the resurrection of Jesus was nothing more than a hoax, a myth, or a legend.   We try to help our listeners see the truth of the Gospel accounts as we set the stage to explore why the resurrection is central to our faith and its implications for us as Christ’s disciples.
