About this listen

As Christians who are in and for Christ, we can't simply stand by as culture crumbles. We must be more than just "in" culture. We must also be "for" its ultimate good. Join us as we look at current cultural trends and apply ideas from the apologetics and evangelism to equip you to impact those around you with compassion, truth, and grace.

  • Resurrection: Three Questions Every Christian Should Ask (with Matthew Tingblad)
    Apr 16 2025

    Share your thoughts with us!

    Three questions are critical to ask when it comes to the topic of resurrection. First, how does resurrection fulfill a natural longing that we all recognize? Second, do we have good reason to believe Jesus was raised from the dead? And third, does the promise of resurrection mean more than just life after death for Christians or does it have every-day impact? Join us as we talk with Matthew Tingblad, an apologist, international speaker, and author of "Why Did God Do That? Discovering God's Goodness in the Hard Passages of Scripture"
