It???s good Friday today, and we???re remembering Jesus??? death on the cross to pay the price for our sins. But the best part of the story is ??' he didn???t stay dead!

There have been all sorts of theories put forward to try to explain this miracle, some people say the disciples stole the body, or he wasn???t fully dead, or the disciples went to the wrong grave???.today on Set Free, Ken Legg addresses many of those theories and shows us that Jesus??? resurrection is real, and holds great hope for us today!

So much happened when Jesus was crucified. The Gospel of Matthew records that certain phenomena took place ??' there was darkness over the land, the veil in the temple was supernaturally torn in half, and then there was an earthquake resulting in graves opening and people coming out of them and going into the city appearing to people.
