In a time when “Christian” is more of a cultural label than a life-changing identity, we’re talking about the bold move of closing the door on cultural Christianity. What does Jesus say about lukewarm faith? Why are fewer people identifying as Christian? And how can you be sure you’re walking through the narrow door of real discipleship? Don’t miss this powerful and practical episode of The Connect Podcast with Cole and Bobby!

Is the resurrection of Jesus just a nice story—or is it actually true?

In this episode of the Connect Podcast, Cole Phillips and Bobby Fraumann explore the most important event in human history: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 15 and real-world evidence, they explore why the resurrection isn’t just a matter of faith—it’s supported by history, eyewitness testimony, Scripture, and changed lives.

They tackle common objections with humor and clarity—like the stolen body theory, the swoon theory, and even the idea that it was all just a hallucination. You’ll hear stories that make you laugh, think, and hopefully, even believe.

Whether you’re a skeptic, a seeker, or someone looking to strengthen your faith, this episode offers a compelling case for why the resurrection still changes everything.

He is risen… and it changes everything.

In this special episode, Cole and Bobby clarify the true Christian origins of Easter, debunk the myth that it’s rooted in paganism, explain why it is celebrated at this time of year, and explore the cultural (not spiritual) reasons behind symbols like bunnies and eggs.

What’s going to happen at the end of the world? Will Jesus really come back? What about Heaven and Hell — are they real, and what does it all mean for us today?

In this powerful episode, Cole and Bobby take you on a panoramic journey through the Book of Revelation and explore the biblical timeline of the end times — from the rapture to the return of Christ, the Tribulation, Armageddon, the Millennium, and the new Heaven and Earth.

But this isn’t a fear-based conversation — it’s filled with faith, hope, and urgency. You’ll discover why Jesus’ return gives us confidence, how eternity impacts our lives right now, and what it means to truly live with forever in mind.

✅ Why Revelation still matters today

🔥 What Heaven and Hell are really about

⏳ What the Bible says about the end times

👀 How to live prepared: Watch. Work. Witness.

This is a must-listen for anyone curious about the end of time and how to be ready for what’s next. Whether you’re new to faith or a longtime believer, this episode will equip and encourage you to live boldly for Christ in light of eternity.
