On this Good Friday, Dr. Tim Clinton is joined by renowned philosopher and theologian Dr. Gary Habermas, as they explore the historical evidence for the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus, fully God, was sent to Earth to live a sinless life and to die for us. But if you’ve heard the gospel, you know the story didn’t end there: three days later, He rose again in victory! Dr. Habermas unpacks why the resurrection isn’t just a moment in history—it’s the very foundation of our faith and the source of our hope.

Growing up in the church can sometimes lead us to believe our identity is tied to what we do for God, but what He truly desires is our surrender. In this conversation with Drs. Tim and Zach Clinton, Christian singer-songwriter Christine D’Clario shares how God met her in a dark and difficult season of infertility and gently led her to lay down even her deepest desires. She reminds us that desert seasons have purpose, not only to draw us closer to Jesus but also to prepare us to walk with others toward healing. And when we begin to speak openly about our pain, we give others the courage to do the same.
