The Resurrection: Doubts and Faith
Speaker:Fred O. Pitts Jr
Fred O. Pitts became the Pastor of Ancient City Baptist Church in July 2017. Although life in the 21st century is complex, he believes the purpose of life can be summed up more simply in the answers Jesus gave when asked the greatest of the commandments: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” Pastor Fred says, “The primary call in my life is seeking first the kingdom of God through pastoring and teaching. My passion is teaching God’s word in a manner that is both understandable and relevant. Primary emphases in my ministry are compassion and encouragement.”

Together, the death and resurrection of Jesus demonstrate the forgiveness of our sins and the promise of eternal life. But…is it true? The apostles and other followers were not anxious to believe but were convinced. One was more skeptical than the rest— the one we have come to call Doubting Thomas. For those of us who harbor our own doubts, what can we learn from him?
