Easter is God’s profound statement that He not only listens, but He also saves.
We are good at recognizing what is wrong—and remarkably bad at fixing it. Isaiah 1 warns that the strong become tinder and their work a spark, exposing every human effort we trust to make life secure and lasting. What hope does Easter offer when the things we build, the solutions we devise, and even our own strength end in ash?
Excitement will only get us so far. To fulfill the mission of this life, we need more.
Where do we go from Easter? Acts 1 gives us an idea as we see how Jesus prepares and gives purpose to His disciples.
Pastor Tim takes us to the question “How can we be saved?” from the New City Catechism. This is a challenging but important question.
The disciples at first saw an empty grave, but not a Risen King. We can find ourselves doing the same.
Pastor Tim reflects on the empty tomb’s uncertainty before the disciples encountered the Risen Jesus.
When we feel so far removed from the things to celebrate, can we still have a reason to rejoice?
This week we reflect on the unfathomable price Jesus paid to offer us the hope of salvation. We have several special moments planned to help us focus on what He has done for us and we hope that you will share them with us.
