Easter According To St. John

What a blessing it is to have John's account of the resurrection of Jesus from the dead along with the other witness of the Gospels.

Easter 2020 - The Fragrance Of Eden

Contributed by Gary Regazzoli on Mar 12, 2020

In front of Mary was a tomb lifeless and foreboding, a scene of death. As she turned around a whole new scene developed around the character of the Gardener.

We live in uncertain times – Droughts, bushfires and now a dreaded pestilence! • Isn’t it amazing how quickly our priorities change when events like this occur? • Instead of striving for that new job, that new house, that new car, that new outfit, suddenly simple things like toilet paper takes on ...read more

Easter Sunday The Resurrection Of The Lord

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Mar 20, 2020

Easter becomes an opportunity to imagine God would be present in our lives to roll away the stone from the graves in the darkest recesses of our souls.

There is a sign in Theo & Stacy’s Greek Restaurant in Kalamazoo, Michigan, that says, “People who believe the dead never come back to life should be here at quitting time.” Let me tell you an Easter story: A long time ago a Frenchman incurred the displeasure of the emperor Napoleon. He was ...read more

Third Sunday Of Easter - Year A

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Apr 6, 2020

The first stage of the Emmaus story is the broken dream.

One Sunday a parochial vicar was doing a children's talk, using a telephone to illustrate the idea of prayer. "You talk to people on the telephone but you don't see them on the other end of the line, do you?” he began. The children shook their heads in agreement. "Well, talking ...read more

An Easter Nobody Will Ever Forget! Series

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Apr 11, 2020

Psalm 22:22-31 expresses praise to God for the expanding proclamation of the good news of victory over death.

Scripture Psalm 22 is a fitting psalm for our meditations on Good Friday and Easter Sunday because the first part of the psalm (verses 1-21) focuses on the experience of suffering on a cross, while the second part of the psalm (verses 22-31) announces the resurrection and expresses praise to God ...read more

Easter - The Day Death Died

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 21, 2019

This Easter Sermon looks at Easter, the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, and how Easter or the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the day the death died.

Easter - The Day Death Died In quoting the prophecy of the prophet Hosea in Chapter 13, verse 14, the Apostle Paul makes this declaration. “‘O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?’ The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who ...read more

Making A Messiah,easter Sunday Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Mar 27, 2016

This is our conclusion to Making a Messiah, as we look at those who proclaimed Jesus Innocent of the charges brought against him.

Jesus was guilty! That’s right on that Good Friday so many years ago Christ was declared guilty. He had fought the good fight but he had lost. In the eyes of the world, in the eyes of His followers and in the eyes of his enemies Jesus Christ the carpenter from Nazareth had been proven to be ...read more

Divine Comedy - Easter Day

Contributed by Christopher Howitz on Apr 17, 2018

Jesus has the last laugh! In Jesus' resurrection, the Creator of the Universe gives His answer to the rejection of His Son at Calvary. In Christ, our lives no longer end in our funeral but rather in the Wedding of the Lamb.

Jokes can be pretty mean, and maybe April 1st, being April Fools Day in some parts, can be a pretty worrying time – you might be always looking over your shoulder, not sure if you’re going to get pranked before mid-day strikes. However, this April 1st, this April Fools Day, also happens to be ...read more

Easter Sunday The Resurrection Of The Lord

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Apr 1, 2021

I mentioned that there was not an accompanying storybook to the Easter Playset. Maybe because the very language of Easter—Pascal-- tells us this that we have to personally experience it. Pasch means "Passing through," in Exodus Chapter 12,...

There are some Christian educational toys for Ages 4-9, like Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand; Daniel and the Lion's Den; Jesus Walks on Water; Moses and the Ten Plagues. Each Playset features full-color, child-safe, action figures that are designed to be paired with its own book which neatly ...read more

Easter Message: Going All In

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 4, 2021

Today's Easter Message is how Jesus went all the way in His death and burial, but also came all the way out in His resurrection. And to follow His example we need go all the way in in our relationship with Him, we'll come out saved, sanctified, and glorified in heaven.

An Easter Message “Going All In” Billy Graham once told Time magazine, “If I were an enemy of Christianity, I would aim right at the Resurrection, because that is the heart of Christianity.” (Billy Graham) (Crosswalk “A World Without Easter”) You see, Christianity is all about Jesus going all in, ...read more

Easter Preparations - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Todd Blair on Apr 4, 2022

The circumstances around the death and resurrection of Jesus

If I were to ask most people how they are preparing for Easter, how do you think they might respond? Now, I'm not asking you. I'm asking most people in this world, not this godly, heaven-minded, holy and spiritual family of believers here this morning. But if I were to ask the common person ...read more
