Did the resurrection of Jesus really happen… or have we just been told that it did?

In this episode of the Spiritual Strategies Podcast, Brittany and Eric step into one of the most foundational—and most questioned—claims of the Christian faith:
Did Jesus truly rise from the dead?

Instead of relying on tradition or assumption, they take a step back and ask a deeper question:
What evidence actually exists—and can it stand up to real scrutiny?

This conversation moves beyond blind faith and into historical reasoning, eyewitness testimony, and logical analysis. Brittany and Eric walk through what we know about Jesus’ life, death, and the events that followed—examining whether the resurrection is simply a belief… or something far more grounded in reality.

From Roman historians to Gospel accounts, from oral tradition to archaeological discoveries, this episode builds a compelling case that invites listeners to think critically and personally about what they believe.

Together, Brittany and Eric explore:

• Why asking questions about faith actually strengthens belief—not weakens it
• The historical evidence surrounding Jesus’ life, crucifixion, and resurrection
• How eyewitness testimony supports the credibility of the Gospel accounts
• Why the timing of the written records matters in validating their accuracy
• The role of non-Christian historians in confirming key biblical events
• How oral tradition preserved Jesus’ teachings with precision and consistency
• Why the differences in Gospel accounts actually increase their credibility
• Common alternative theories about the resurrection—and why they fall apart
• The dramatic transformation of the disciples after encountering the risen Jesus
• What it means to have a faith that is rooted in both truth and evidence

This episode also challenges a common assumption:
Faith is not meant to ignore evidence—it’s meant to respond to it.

Because if the resurrection is true…
then Jesus is not just a historical figure to study—He is alive.

And that changes everything.

If you’ve ever wondered whether Christianity can stand up to real questions, or if your faith has ever felt more inherited than examined, this conversation will give you a stronger, clearer foundation.

Because the resurrection isn’t just a story to believe…
it’s a truth to respond to.

Join Brittany and Eric as they explore how history, evidence, and transformed lives all point to one central question:
If Jesus really rose from the dead—what does that mean for you?

What happens when life doesn’t make sense… and you start questioning not just your circumstances—but God Himself?

In this episode of the Spiritual Strategies Podcast, Brittany and Eric take on two of the most difficult and honest questions believers and non-believers alike wrestle with:

Why does God allow suffering?
And why believe in God at all?

Rather than avoiding these questions, they lean into them.

Through real-life experiences, biblical truth, and thoughtful conversation, Brittany and Eric unpack the deeper reality behind pain, suffering, and the nature of God’s character. Many people assume that if God is good, life should be free from hardship—but Scripture reveals something very different.

Suffering doesn’t mean God is absent.
And “being a good person” isn’t the full story of what we were created for.

This episode challenges common assumptions and brings clarity to questions that often go unspoken. From hospital rooms to personal testimonies, the conversation explores how pain can either push us away from God—or draw us closer to Him.

Together, Brittany and Eric discuss:

• Why suffering does not originate from God—and what Scripture actually reveals
• The difference between questioning God’s character and understanding the brokenness of the world
• How faith operates in the middle of pain—not outside of it
• Why trying to define “good” on our own terms leads us away from truth
• The danger of postponing a relationship with God until “later”
• How salvation is not a negotiation after death—but an invitation during life
• What it means to respond to suffering spiritually instead of just emotionally or intellectually
• How believers can step into painful situations and bring faith, peace, and hope to others

This episode also introduces a powerful perspective:
Sometimes the goal isn’t to fully understand suffering—but to respond to it correctly.

If you’ve ever asked, “God, where are You?”
Or wondered if living a “good life” is enough—this conversation will meet you right where you are.

Because the nature of God isn’t revealed in the absence of suffering…
it’s revealed in how He meets us in the middle of it.

Join Brittany and Eric as they explore how truth, faith, and relationship with God reshape the way we view pain, purpose, and eternity.

Have you ever had a thought that quietly whispered:

“You’re not qualified.”
“You’re not good enough.”
“You missed your chance.”

Most people assume those thoughts are just part of normal self-doubt.

But what if they aren’t?

What if some of the most discouraging thoughts we wrestle with aren’t random at all—but carefully placed lies designed to keep us from stepping into the purpose God created us for?

In this episode of the Biblical Passages Podcast, Brittany and Eric explore what they call The Four Spiritual Lies—a pattern of deception that repeatedly appears in the lives of believers.

Scripture calls Satan “the accuser,” but his accusations rarely arrive as loud attacks. Instead, they appear as quiet thoughts that feel believable enough to derail our confidence, identity, and calling.

These lies don’t always show up all at once.

Often, the enemy simply tries one lie at a time.
And if one doesn’t work, he moves to the next.

Throughout this conversation, Brittany and Eric break down four common lies that quietly sabotage spiritual growth:

• You have no worth – The lie that your life has no intrinsic value or significance.
• You might matter, but not here – The idea that your purpose only exists in heaven, not in your life right now.
• Your past disqualified you – The accusation that your mistakes permanently define your identity.
• Force your way in – The deception that confuses ambition with calling and pushes people to act outside of God’s timing.

Drawing from Scripture and personal experience, Brittany and Eric unpack how these lies influence the way people see themselves, their purpose, and their relationship with God.

They also explore why deception is one of the enemy’s most effective strategies.

Often, he doesn’t need to destroy someone’s faith outright.

All he has to do is convince them that their life has no meaningful role in God’s kingdom.

Because if someone believes they have no value, they will never pursue their calling.

But Scripture tells a very different story.

Throughout the episode, Brittany shares powerful verses that speak directly against these lies, including reminders that we are:

• Fearfully and wonderfully made
• Created for good works
• Chosen and placed by God with purpose

Eric also explains why believers must learn to respond to accusations spiritually rather than emotionally, following the example Jesus gave in Matthew 4 when He responded to temptation with Scripture.

Instead of debating the enemy, Jesus simply spoke truth.

And that pattern still works today.

By the end of the episode, Brittany and Eric leave listeners with an important question:

Which of these lies has shaped the way you see yourself?

Because once you recognize the lie, you can replace it with truth.

And when truth takes root, identity begins to change.

If you’ve ever wrestled with doubts about your worth, your calling, or your past mistakes, this episode will help you recognize the spiritual battle happening beneath those thoughts.

Because the enemy’s goal is confusion.

But God’s goal is clarity.

And sometimes freedom begins with something as simple as recognizing the lie you’ve been believing.
