Speaker: Pastor Matt Troyer In this week's message, Pastor Matt unpacks the varied and deeply personal reactions to the resurrection of Jesus—a central event in Christian faith.

The soldiers and religious leaders rejected the truth, choosing resistance and denial even in the face of evidence. The disciples displayed slow and evolving belief , showing that faith often develops over time. Thomas , famously doubting, mirrors the common human struggle of needing proof before belief. Pastor Matt cautions against seeking faith solely on our own terms , which can create barriers to fully embracing belief. Throughout, he emphasizes that the resurrection demands a personal response .
