Jesus Rose from the Dead?... Are You Serious??... Yes!!!

How can we know... for a fact... that Jesus really did rise? And why is that great news and possibly unsettling?

Acts 2:32-36,17:30-31
Romans 1:3-4
1 Corinthians 15:22
Psalm 130:3
1 John 2:1

Sermon discussion topics for parents to use with their children:
Why do we believe some people when they tell us something is real or it really happened?
Why do the facts of Jesus' resurrection and the eyewitness accounts point to the fact that He did rise?
Why do you and I need a risen Savior?

A Confident Hope

Do you have Hope? Do you live in the daily joy and boldness of a confident Hope? Where can one get a sure Hope? How the world today needs the good news of the sure Hope God gives!

Sermon discussion questions for parents to use with their children:
What is a hope that is built on evidence and how is that different than a vague hope?
What are the alternatives today for a hope for the future?
Why do they offer no hope and no evidence?
How is Christianity so gloriously different?
What is, or rather Who is our hope?
What is the evidence that makes this hope so sure?

Resurrection, Really!

Sermon discussion questions for parents to use with their children:
What is the historical evidence for the resurrection?
Why were the actions of Christ's enemies actually helpful in proving His resurrection?
What is the significance of the actions and convictions of the apostles after the resurrection?
What is the significance of the resurrection for us today and in the future?
