Empty: Celebrating the Risen Savior – A Conversation with Joshua Cooley

This week on the podcast, co-hosts Tricia Goyer and Mike Nawrocki welcome New York Times bestselling author Joshua Cooley to discuss his newest book, Empty: Celebrating the Risen Savior.

Some things are disappointing when empty—piggy banks, cookie jars, or gift-wrapped boxes on Christmas morning. But sometimes, empty is the best news ever—like a Saturday chore list or a beehive you almost disturbed!

Two thousand years ago, just outside Jerusalem, an empty tomb changed the course of history. In Empty, Joshua Cooley invites young readers on a fun, engaging, and meaningful journey to discover why Jesus’ empty tomb is the greatest empty of all time—and what it means for us today.
