J. Warner Wallace is a former cold-case detective—and curious skeptic—who used his unique skill set to investigate the Bible's claims. He joins Pastor Greg Laurie to help us find answers to questions that grip us, like how can a loving God allow suffering and what do I do with my unanswered questions? He also shares his effective approach to addressing skeptics' questions, encouraging us to think like we're in front of a jury.

By the end of this episode, you'll feel more empowered and equipped, not only to talk about your faith with others, but to work through questions of your own. Give it a listen!

If you have ever felt like Heaven was silent, you’re not alone. Even Jesus Himself cried out, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” But here's what we’ll learn this Good Friday as we reflect on Jesus Christ’s ultimate sacrifice: it’s often in the silence that God is doing His greatest work.

Notes:

Focus verse: Matthew 27:45–54 (NLT)

#1 The Cry Met With Silence

#2 The Plan Behind the Silence
Isaiah 53:5–7 (NLT)

The silence from Heaven wasn’t indifference.
The silence from the cross wasn’t weakness.
It was fulfillment.

#3 The Purpose of the Silence
John 19:28–30 (NLT)

Easter is the most important holiday on the Christian calendar. It’s the remembrance of the sacrifice of Christ, and the celebration of a risen Savior. It commemorates the day our eternal life became possible. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie highlights practical truths about the Lord’s Resurrection and the difference it makes for us today. How important is the Resurrection? Paul said if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.
