Rebuilding Faith

Looking for the Wrong Thing (John 20:1-18)

Episode Description from the Publisher

Mary Magdalene shows up to a tomb expecting a body and finds nothing. No body, no explanation, just absence. This week on Rebuilding Faith, we're in John 20, and the resurrection story is stranger and more human than you probably remember: a foot race, a priest who won't touch a corpse, and a woman who becomes the first witness in a world that wouldn't let her testify. But the moment that reframes all of it is Mary's announcement when she finds the disciples. If your faith used to rest on certainty and the right answers, and that's been falling apart, this episode might be the one you needed.
