The Living God: Triumph Over Despair Through Jesus

📖 Introduction

“God is dead,” said Nietzsche, a bold claim that captured the spirit of skepticism and despair in modern thought. Yet, the Christian faith proclaims a triumphant truth: Jesus is alive! The resurrection is not just a miracle of the past—it is the living hope that confronts and overcomes nihilism and meaninglessness. This study invites you to journey through Scripture to see how God’s victory offers profound hope in a world wrestling with despair.

Nietzsche’s declaration challenged the foundation of all moral and spiritual beliefs, positing a universe devoid of purpose or divine presence. But the resurrection story exposes a different reality: a God who conquers death and points to eternal life. It is this God who answers the deepest questions of human existence and invites us into a relationship filled with purpose and hope.

Over the next seven days, we will reflect on key Scriptures that highlight the living God revealed in Jesus Christ. From the promise of resurrection to the assurance of God’s presence amidst suffering, you will discover how the Bible speaks powerfully into the challenges posed by nihilism.

Join this journey: encounter the God who defies death, who restores meaning, and who calls each of us into life that never ends. This is the God who lives—real, victorious, and full of love, proven through Jesus’ resurrection.
