Profiles of an Apostle: Peter and Thomas

This Easter message dives deep into the heart of our faith - the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We explore John 20, which recounts the discovery of the empty tomb and Jesus' appearances to his disciples. The central theme revolves around the importance of evidence in our faith journey. We're reminded that God doesn't expect blind faith, but rather invites us to examine the evidence and build our belief on a solid foundation. The story of 'Doubting Thomas' takes center stage, challenging us to reconsider our perception of doubt. Instead of condemning Thomas, we see Jesus compassionately providing the evidence he sought. This narrative encourages us to bring our questions and doubts to God, knowing He welcomes our desire for understanding. The message also highlights the transformative power of encountering the risen Christ, urging us to consider how we respond to the evidence of His resurrection in our own lives.
