209. Was Jesus Really Dead And In The Tomb For 3 Days?

17:17 Podcast

With Easter just passing, its worth asking: Is Easter even legit? Is there merit to celebrating it? Was Jesus actually dead in the first place?
In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through some of the common arguments against the whole basis of Easter. We talk through arguments around whether Jesus was ever really dead in the first place and if he was dead, how do we make light of Scripture seeming to contradict itself on the exact length of time Jesus was in the tomb. Some of these arguments have caused many people to have questions, so we hope to dispel some of those concerns in this podcast!
