Learning to overcome addictions? Confused about God’s will for your life? How to train your body, mind, and soul? In association with FRG Ministries, travel, explore and go back to the basics with Fr. Rob Galea, Roman Catholic priest, and contemporary Christian singer-songwriter. Come, re-discover simple faith! 

Have you ever asked: “Did Jesus really exist?” In this episode, we explore the “historicity” of Jesus. Philosopher Bertrand Russell said that it was doubtful whether Christ existed and that if He did, we do not know anything about Him. Roman historian, Tacitus, writes about Jesus and His crucifixion. Flavius Josephus, a Jew, also wrote about Jesus and His crucifixion. Many others after them also wrote about the Nazarene who performed miracles. Not just historians, we also have the Bible - a book full of references to history to help us understand Christ who was part of history and is still alive today.

He existed fully human and fully divine; He rose from the dead! There is historical evidence of Jesus' existence through his disciples, through books, and even nature! To us, He is more than a historical figure; we have a relationship with the living God by speaking and listening to Him. Let’s dive deeper into knowing Jesus Christ and develop a relationship with Him.
