The Executioners: Who Were the Romans?

Today, in the West, it might be hard to imagine what it means to have to keep our faith a secret. But there are two secret disciples in the Easter story - Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea. They enjoyed power and prestige among the religious elite - but had to keep their love for Jesus quiet. In this episode, Dan helps us understand how courage looks different on different people in different situations.

By including these men in the Easter story, God shows us how he works in mysterious ways to accomplish his purposes in the world.

The Secret Disciples: Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea

Today it might not seem so strange that women were the first to see the empty tomb of Jesus or that women were the first ones to announce the empty tomb to the rest of Jesus’ followers. But in the Greco-Roman world, women were not the messengers the world trusted to bear important news. And yet, the gospels record women beholding and telling, seeing and sharing, weeping and waiting.

In this episode, we’ll look at the 5 women of Easter, who witnessed the death and resurrection of Christ.
