"Would you die for something you knew wasn’t true?"
✝️ BREAD OF THE WEEK
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
Reflection:
Imagine this:
You would die for your family.
You might even die for your country.
But would you die for something you knew wasn’t true?
The apostles of Jesus didn’t just believe… they knew.
They saw the risen Christ.
They touched His scars.
They heard His voice after the resurrection.
And when the cost came… torture, imprisonment, even death, not one of them recanted.
They didn’t die for a myth.
They didn’t die for power or fame.
They died for the truth.
Today, I’m sharing something special:
A video that tells the story of how each apostle finished their race — and how their sacrifice remains one of the greatest proofs of the resurrection.
If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, or wondered why we trust these ancient testimonies, this video will give you a fresh reason to believe.
Father,
Thank You for the truth that anchors our souls.
Give us the courage to stand firm in our faith, just as the apostles did.
Strengthen us to fight the good fight, to finish the race, and to keep the faith - no matter what comes.
Fill our hearts with boldness, love, and unwavering hope as we step into a new week.
In Jesus' name,
