If the Tomb Is Empty

Why the Resurrection Means Anything Is Possible

De: Joby Martin, Charles Martin, Tim Tebow - introduction

Narrado por: Joby Martin, Charles Martin, Fred Berman

A beloved pastor and a New York Times bestselling author examine scripture and share inspiring personal stories to help show the important role that Jesus’ resurrection plays in our everyday lives.

The Son of God was crucified, died and buried, and He lay in the tomb for three days—until He walked out shining like the sun. In a culture in which history is erased or rewritten at will, the existence of an empty tomb matters. Why?

Because if the tomb is empty—then anything is possible.

In his first book, Joby Martin, Lead Pastor of The Church of Eleven22, dives deep into scripture and traces the story of salvation by highlighting the seven mountains throughout scripture where God manifests himself. As he describes each encounter with God, Martin shows us how the interaction on each mountain laid the groundwork for the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary, and shows what God revealed about Himself in the process. He illuminates seven familiar passages, unveiling how God's plan for Christ's sacrifice is threaded throughout scripture, and shows why Christ's resurrection—impossible, unbelievable—means that nothing is too hard for our God. Ultimately, he asks readers, Do you live every day of your life as if the tomb is empty—or as though Jesus is still hanging on that cross?

Written with New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin, If the Tomb is Empty is an insightful and spiritually rich examination of what the miracle of Christ's resurrection means for all of us.

If The Tomb is Empty

I loved all the content. Pastor Joby is my pastor and I love how he loves sharing the gospel!

We need to acknowledge the power!

There is real power in Jesus! He isn’t just an idea or a historical figure but a living breathing God who has lived among us! As a Catholic listener I’m inspired by Pastor Jobys message. I think this is required reading for all Christians!

Powerful! Highly recommended.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is both engaging and anointed. The points brought out are powerful and spot on. Thank you for sharing your biblical insights.

Yes!!

POWERFUL book! The last couple chapters were my favorites, especially the story about his friend Sunshine: heartbreaking but had some good lessons. Overall 10/10 would recommend.
