This Sunday we'll continue our celebration of the Easter season by considering the aftermath of the resurrection, as recorded in the gospel of Matthew. This Sunday, we will focus on Matthew 28:11-15, in which the resurrection is challenged by a rumor that Jesus' body was simply stolen by the disciples.
The sermon, "Psst! Did You Hear What Really Happened?" will look at this minority report, which admits that there were early rumors that Jesus was not really resurrected, but was instead buried secretly. Is the resurrection of Jesus simply the a 2000 year hoax? What can Christians learn from the question, Was Jesus really resurrected?
This is the first of three sermons focusing on Matthew 28. The next two will focus on Jesus' "Great Commission" to all of the disciples (including us), a magnificent and important story, and one well worth a couple weeks of attention.
