I was running an errand this morning and as I was driving I couldn’t help but notice the truck in front of me. The bumper stickers said things like “Taking Drugs are Bad, The Drug War is Worse” and “PFLAG”, as well as having a Darwin fish with legs, and the big one was his license plate holder that said “Godless American”. My first reaction was “Wow, that’s bold” and then I got sad. Just the idea of being a Godless American cut me deep in the heart. It makes me wonder what had happened to this older gentleman lifetime that would make him so bold to denounce God’s existence and to reject him in a way where if he was looking God in the face he would be giving him the bird. I prayed for that gentleman because I know one day every knee will bow and I hope at that time he will know the real gospel.

I received an invitation today and I wanted to extend that invitation to anyone who may read my blog. Read the invitation below and maybe I’ll see you this Sunday.

Of all the world religions, only one dares to claim that its founder rose from the dead. This truth of the Christian faith is so important that if it didn’t actually happen in time and space, the Apostle Paul says we should be pitied, give up our faith and live only for today because there’s nothing more than what we see. However, if it is true and we dismiss this event as inconsequential, a fate far worse than being pitied is before us all.

Can we take such a claim seriously in a time when we believe all history is suspect and anything unfamiliar must be a myth? Everyone has an opinion about the resurrection of Jesus Christ and most of them are informed by cultural bias rather than thoughtful insight. How do we sift through opinion and fact? What about all the objections from experts in religious studies? What proof is there to positively show the resurrection is a historical fact and not mere wish fulfillment? What difference does it really make anyway? These are the types of questions we’re going to consider this Sunday as we come to celebrate with our hearts and minds the most astounding event in human history.

We invite you to explore the resurrection with us as we consider The Proof and Truth of the Resurrection this Sunday morning at Kaleo Church. This will be a great time to invite friends, relatives, co-workers, and neighbors who want to celebrate with you or who have questions about the risen Jesus. See you then!
