Welcome to Gospel and Life.

Increasingly, the culture sees facts or truth as relative.

The implication is that there is no certainty on what the right take on reality is.

The Christian Church has become an anchor for the idea that there is objective truth,

truth that is independent from individual's subjectivity.

In this special podcast on the historic significance of the resurrection, we listen in to a

conversation between Tim and Kathy Keller as they discuss how God made the events of

Christ's death, burial, and resurrection, something we can trust in.

And that these events are historically verifiable truths and what that means for the way we live.

After you listen, we invite you to go online to Gospel and Life.com and sign up for our

Now here's Tim and Kathy Keller.

Kathy, I think it's kind of ironic that here we are in the 21st century,

1st, 3rd, or the 21st century.

And perhaps the biggest proponent of verifiable facts and truth is the Christian Church.

Because what's happening in our culture, I just read a book by James Davis, a hunter, a friend of mine,

who was saying increasingly the culture doesn't believe in facts or truth.

It believes that people create their own truth, they create their own facts.

There's no real certainty about what the right take on reality is.

And so here we have the Christian Church of all things being the center of emphasis on

there are historical facts that can be verified.

Yeah, it's not just ironic, it's actually pretty frustrating.
