What evidence do scholars find so compelling? What historical proof can we find that tells us that the resurrection of Jesus Christ actually happened? Christianity is worthless unless Jesus was raised from the dead in his body after he was crucified the first time that he was on earth. Because the resurrection of Jesus Christ was a historical event, it can be evaluated historically to determine whether it actually happened or not.
Robert Keyes, MD PhD, shares the historical evidence and invites your questions.

Four central historical facts discussed:
1. Jesus was buried in the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea.
2. The tomb was found empty on the third day after the burial.
3. Jesus appeared to groups of disciples on multiple occasions.
4. The resurrection is the only explanation for the birth of the church.
