史特博（Lee Strobel）原本是一個無神論者，根本不相信耶穌的復活。但他是一名記者，具有新聞從業人員的分析思維，因此在他妻子信主之後，他決定親自研究妻子的基督信仰。經過兩年的研究，他不再堅持無神論，而是相信上帝、相信耶穌的復活、接受基督信仰。

接著，他的生命有了顯而易見的改變。幾個月後，他五歲的女兒對他妻子說：「媽媽，上帝改變了爸爸，我也想要上帝那樣對我。」於是，他女兒也相信了耶穌。

許多人都拒絕相信耶穌復活，但許多值得信賴的見證人都目睹耶穌的復活，使徒彼得就是其中之一。他告訴群眾，大衛王確實死了也埋葬了（使徒行傳2章29節），接著他指出了大衛王曾預言彌賽亞的復活（31節）。彼得總結說：「這耶穌，上帝已經叫祂復活了，我們都為這事作見證。」（32節）

使徒彼得以及許多見證人生命的改變，就是耶穌復活的最佳證據。在耶穌被釘十字架時，眾門徒早已躲藏起來。彼得甚至拒絕承認自己是耶穌的門徒（約翰福音18章15-17、25-27節）。然而，當他們看見復活的耶穌時，一切都改變了。他們充滿勇氣，開始傳講這世上最大的盼望──復活的基督。

Lee didn’t believe in God, and he didn’t believe in the resurrection of Jesus. But Lee was a journalist with an analytical mind. When his wife believed in Jesus, he decided to study her new faith for himself. After two years of research, he gave in—to God, to the resurrection, to faith in Christ.

The change in him was noticeable. After a few months, his five-year-old daughter said to his wife, “Mommy, I want God to do for me what he’s done for Daddy.” And the daughter of Lee Strobel put her faith in Jesus too.

Many people refuse to believe in the resurrection. But reputable eyewitnesses saw the risen Jesus. One of those eyewitnesses, the disciple Peter, told a large crowd that King David was certainly dead and buried (Acts 2:29). Then Peter pointed to a prophecy David had made. “[David] spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah,” he said (v. 31). Peter concluded, “God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of it” (v. 32).

The best evidence for the resurrection is the changed lives of the eyewitnesses, including Peter. At the crucifixion, the disciples had gone into hiding. Peter actually denied Christ (John 18:15-17, 25-27). Once they saw Jesus alive, everything changed. Filled with courage, they began to share the truth of the one great hope of the world—the risen Christ.
