Raised on the Third Day: Exploring the Resurrection with Chris Holmes

The empty tomb is one of the most significant symbols in the Christian faith, and reflection on the significance of Jesus’s resurrection fills the pages of the New Testament. How do these reflections relate to Jewish and Greek understandings of resurrection and immortality? How do we understand the different accounts of Jesus’s resurrection in the New Testament? And what does the resurrection of Jesus mean for his followers, both in antiquity and today?

Come explore these questions and more in this new Theology Matters course taught by Rev. Dr. Chris Holmes.
