Jesus Risen And Alive

Video Illustration

Produced by Freebridge Media

It had been three long days. The echos of the cross still filled the air. There was a darkness that was palpable, a sense of dread that was all consuming. Fear permeated the landscape, powered by an inconceivable loss. Hope was dead. But in the distance was a sound. The sound of earth moving, of foundations rattling. The sound of God taking back the world He loved. Darkness had been flooded with light, fear had been overtaken by hope. and death had been swallowed in victory. In that moment, sin lost its power, the grave lost its sting, and evil was left broken in defeat. He is victorious. He is triumphant. He is risen. Jesus…is alive.

What is a parable? Jesus connected with the every day life of people through His parables. In this clip, from Drive Thru History with Dave Stotts "The Gospels,' we learn that parables were "comparisons to make a point." Some parables were purposely vague and Jesus explains why he taught in parables and we hear some of Jesus' most cherished parables-the Prodigal Son and the Good Samaritan.

Freedom

Video Illustration

Produced by Freebridge Media

Freedom. It’s something we cherish in this country. The idea of a free society is embedded into the very core of our Nation. Many have died defending it, and many have fought diligently to preserve it. So where has it gone? We have become a nation bound by division, chained by hatred, and consumed by selfishness. Does this look like freedom? The Bible tells us we are called to be free. But it also says to use that freedom to serve one another humbly, in love. Maybe that’s what we’re missing in America. Today we celebrate Independence Day. Perhaps it’s time we recognize that true independence is found only in a lasting dependence on God. For where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom.

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:17, 2 Chronicles 7:14, 1 Timothy 2:6, Galatians 5:1, Psalm 119:45, John 8:32, John 8:36, Psalm 33:12, Psalm 118:5, Ephesians 3:12, Romans 8:1  (view more)  (view less)

Easter

Video Illustration

Produced by Pixel Preacher

Our world was lost to sin for many years. People were broken and empty. But throughout scripture a promise was made of a Savior that would conquer sin and bring salvation. That promise was fulfilled through Jesus Christ. God sacrificed His son so that we may have freedom from sin. Jesus was crucified and buried in a tomb for three days. But rose to life on that third day. We know this turning point in history as Easter. Salvation through Jesus Christ is not possible without the resurrection.
