    Dealing with the death of Lazarus, Jesus performed one of His greatest miracles. While meeting a desperate and immediate need through miraculous power, Jesus also revealed an eternal truth - the dead in Christ never die! He is the Resurrection and Life.

Totally unprepared for the reality of it. I was well armed with a bevy of important and well-educated sounding ...read more
