According to the Apostle Paul, the truth of Christianity and the hope of humanity rise and fall on one question which is asked by seekers, skeptics, and even believers: Did the resurrection of Jesus really happen?
In a challenging seminar designed for those who ask this question and for those who would like to answer it with assurance, Hank Hanegraaff, the "Bible Answer Man," and evangelists, Lee Strobel and Mark Mittelberg, will take you step by step through the evidence that leads to one sure answer.
Topics to be addressed include:
- Common challenges to the resurrection from religious and secular skeptics.
- Historical evidence that supports the claims of Christianity.
- The incredible life-changing implications of the resurrection of Jesus Christ for each one of us.
Who should attend this seminar:
- Skeptics who are willing to be challenged in their views about Jesus and the resurrection.
- Seekers who are willing to honestly wrestle with the facts about the person of Jesus.
- Believers who want resources that will help them share their faith with their seeking friends and who want to renew their confidence that their faith is founded on a solid foundation of historically, verifiable facts.
