Thank you. If you've ever had doubts about Jesus resurrection, you're not alone.

0:31.3

Even the Apostle Thomas remained skeptical.

0:34.4

He wanted to investigate the evidence for himself.

On Truth for Life weekend,

0:44.7

we're getting a head start on Easter by examining the proof of Christ's resurrection and the testimony of witnesses. Here's Alistair Begg.

0:53.5

When you read chapter 20 of John's Gospel, you wonder why it wasn't the last chapter

2:22.3

faith is built. Some young people brought up in Christian homes and kept buoyant largely by the

2:31.2

faith of their parents and surrounding family members, but who in the quiet of their own
