Transformed by the Risen Lord
How did Thomas go from "doubting Thomas" to The Apostle & Martyr Thomas"? Why did the first disciples of Jesus live they way they did? How did the Apostles go from hiding in fear to preaching boldly out in the open? They were transformed by the Risen Lord Jesus.

For This He Came
Was the death of Jesus a horrible accident that God had to fix by raising him back from death? Or was this what Jesus came to do? The cross is no accident, for this Jesus - God in the flesh - came. To rescue and save us from the sin, the ruler of this world and to draw all people to himself!
