The Beautiful Resurrection

Video Illustration

Produced by Skit Guys

Maybe an empty egg is a better symbol for Easter than one filled with treats. An empty Easter egg is filled with discouragement for the child who finds it. Mary Magdalene was filled with distress when she discovered the empty tomb on that first Easter morning. Empty often feels like disappointment, but the empty tomb on Easter Sunday was filled with hope for the world. An empty tomb became a resurrection miracle. When we feel isolated and alone, our emptiness leaves plenty of room for Jesus to enter. This video is part of THE BEAUTIFUL EMPTY Easter series.

He is alive. His story will help usher in the celebration for our Savior who has risen!

Witness His Resurrection: Zealot

Video Illustration

Produced by Skit Guys

Though not much is known about the disciple called Simon the Zealot, this video imagines him as one who fought against the Roman empire until he became a follower of Jesus. As he remembers the Final Supper, Simon was unsettled by Jesus’ words, “This is my blood of the covenant, poured out for many.” He wrestles with his lifelong belief that the Messiah was coming to destroy his enemies, though Jesus has told the disciples to love their enemies.

Believe: Jairus' Daughter

She recounts how her father was willing to give up everything to believe in Jesus, trusting that He could heal her. Jesus did the same thing for all of us, so we could each be brought back to life.

Video Illustration

Produced by Skit Guys

When she stood accused and awaited the consequence of death, the woman caught in adultery encountered Jesus, who showed her mercy. She recounts this story and draws the connection between her own accusers, and those who brought Jesus to the cross. When he shouted, “It is finished,” she remarks that it was not Jesus who was finished, but rather something was accomplished — restored. This video is based on John 19:30 and is part of the Last Words of Christ Easter series, and can also stand alone as a Good Friday video or sermon illustration on mercy and restoration.

Video Illustration

Produced by Skit Guys

As humans, we find all sorts of things in our lives to crown as king, but they’re often things that carry us away from the path God sets before us. On Palm Sunday, the people of Jerusalem looked to Jesus as a new king, not realizing that the crown he would bear would be made of thorns. As we celebrate his triumphal entry, this captivating video helps us focus our hearts on Jesus as we declare Him the King of our lives.
