Was Jesus’ resurrection fact or fiction? On this broadcast, we examine the powerful case for the resurrection, refute common objections, and show why it confirms Jesus’ identity and fulfills the law. Join us as we delve into Scripture, history, and reason to understand why the resurrection changes everything.

In this episode of Paratus, we explore the central proof of Christ’s divinity – the resurrection. Dr. Holden and Dr. Zukeran unpack the historical evidence, biblical prophecy, and theological significance of the resurrection, addressing skeptical arguments and comparing it to pagan myths. Discover why the resurrection is not only foundational to Christian faith but also the supreme apologetic of Jesus.

Dr. Holden and Dr. Zukeran joined to launch a series on Pat’s book, The Apologetics of Jesus. In this episode, they define miracles, explain their importance, and how they uniquely authenticated Jesus as the promised Messiah and divine Son of God. The discussion also engages with challenges to miracles, including classic objections from Enlightenment thinker David Hume.

In this episode, Dr. Joseph Holden and Dr. Patrick Zukeran explore the apologetics of Jesus, focusing on the nature and purpose of miracles.

Through biblical and philosophical insights, the episode affirms the credibility and significance of miracles in Christ’s ministry and apologetics today.

Is the New Testament historically reliable? Were the Gospels written too late to accurately preserve the words and deeds of Jesus? Join us as we talk with Ben Shaw, president of Core Apologetics and author of Trustworthy, about alleged contradictions in the Bible, the reliability of oral tradition, the identity of the Gospel writers, and the historical tests scholars use to evaluate ancient documents.

Have the teachings of Jesus been accurately preserved, or were they changed over time?
