A Strange New Argument For the Resurrect...

Send us a text



When we talk about proving the resurrection, we usually reach for the familiar arguments — the authority of Scripture, the empty tomb, the eyewitnesses. Those are strong, solid, and true. But in 1 Corinthians 15, Paul takes an unexpected path.

In this message, we explore three of Paul’s strange but powerful arguments for the resurrection — ones you won’t often hear in an apologetics book, but that cut straight to how we live, who we walk with, and what we’re willing to risk for Christ.

Paul’s logic is simple but searching: if there is no resurrection, then why endure suffering, why pursue holiness, why sacrifice for the gospel? But if there is a resurrection — and there is — then everything changes.

Join us as we look at this unusual passage and discover how belief in the resurrection isn’t just about proving a point — it’s about shaping a life.

Because if Christ is risen, then living for Him is not only worth it — it’s the only thing that makes sense.
