Then eight days later, Thomas and all the others were in the house together. And even though all the doors were locked, Jesus suddenly stood before them! “Peace to you,” he said. Then, looking into Thomas’ eyes, he said, “Put your finger here in the wounds of my hands. Here—put your hand into my wounded side and see for yourself. Thomas, don’t give in to your doubts any longer, just believe!” Then the words spilled out of his heart—“You are my Lord, and you are my God!” Jesus responded, “Thomas, now that you’ve seen me, you believe. But there are those who have never seen me with their eyes but have believed in me with their hearts, and they will be blessed even more!” Jesus went on to do many more miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not even included in this book. But all that is recorded here is so that you will fully believe that Jesus is the Anointed One, the Son of God, and that through your faith in him you will experience eternal life by the power of his name!

Can spirits interact with the living? Is there really such a thing as purgatory? Will there be pets in heaven? Popular pastor Randy Frazee offers Biblically-based answers to questions about life and death. Drawn from the book What Happens After You Die: A Biblical Guide to Paradise, Hell, and Life After Death.
Perhaps one of the most debilitating parts of life can be summed up in one word—doubt. Doubt can destroy faith, trust, belief, and confidence when it is left unchecked and unresolved. The disciple Thomas, and even John the Baptist, experienced doubt that could have shattered their faith and trust in Jesus. This plan shares with us how doubt by Jesus can bring about peace, faith, grace, and patience.
Throughout the Bible, we are taught what it means to rely on God when we are struggling through difficult times. This plan is an abbreviated collection from the One Question Bible Study Series and focuses on life-giving passages with a single reflection question to ponder.
In the days leading up to Easter Sunday, let's take some time to stop, dive deep into Jesus' journey to the cross, and invite Him to bring you fresh revelation of this season. It is helpful to have a journal with you as you reflect on the questions, and to track what God reveals to you in this time!
