  S2E12. Mark 16: Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead? The Empty Tomb

  Jul 23, 202624 minS2

  Bible study on Mark 16. In the powerful finale to our series on Mark’s Gospel, we confront the question that changes everything: Did Jesus really rise from the dead—and what difference does it make today? Drawing on Paul’s ancient creed in 1 Corinthians 15 and the raw, breathless account of the empty tomb in Mark 16:1-8, we explore the eyewitness evidence, the women’s fearless witness, the abrupt (and controversial) ending of Mark, and why the resurrection isn’t just an Easter event—it’s the heartbeat of the Christian life every single day. Christ is risen. Everything stands or falls on this. Come hear why the tomb is still empty, and why that truth demands a response from every one of us.
