Did Jesus Rise from the Dead?  (1:19) Watch Now

Q. My name is Cailey. It seems like ever since I came out of the womb, I’ve been taught about Christ. Don’t get me wrong – I’m glad I was. But it hasn’t always seemed rational to me. In my case, if the story isn’t rational, then I have a hard time believing it.

A. Amen, Cailey! I agree with you. When I was an atheist, I didn’t think Christianity made sense. But as I used my journalism and legal training to systematically investigate the evidence for the faith, I concluded that there are powerful and persuasive reasons for concluding that Jesus really is the unique Son of God who proved his divinity by rising from the dead. One of the reasons we created www.LeeStrobel.com was to offer a huge reservoir of video clips about why Christianity is rational. I hope you’ll take advantage of this material, Cailey, so you can see that our faith is built on a strong factual foundation.
