243. Random Resurrections?

Is it true that a number of people got up out of their graves and talked to others when Jesus resurrected?

In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question around the account in Matthew 27 of what feels like a bunch of random resurrections. We look at other historical writings and their accounts of this event, as well as why none of the other gospel writers mentioned this event. Our hope is that as you listen, you receive encouragement from the reason that we believe God raised all of these people from the dead in a rare and bizarre, yet really cool story.
