Because He Lives

It is easy to become so engrossed in the details of historical events—who, when, where—that we miss their significance. Take World War II. There are many compelling stories. Lots of dates and data to remember. But just imagine the Allies had lost? How would the world be different today? What would life be like for those of Jewish heritage? Would freedom exist in Europe? Would we be speaking German?

In this season of Easter, it is good we review the details: who, when, where. That reminds us that the resurrection of Christ is not fairytale or fable, but an historical event. . . However, we do ourselves a disservice if we simply recall the historic details of Easter without thinking long and hard about Easter’s significance. Jesus won. That means something!

It is our privilege and pleasure to use the fifty days of Easter to discuss this fact: because he lives, not only is our eternity secure, but we have abundant resources to face the present. Join us to hear more in worship, Sunday mornings at 10am.
