    Surprises related to the Easter story.

    How many of you like surprises? If you are very young, your immediate response is, "Oh, boy! I love surprises!" If you are a little older, you’re probably a little more cautious.

     | 4,052 views

    If you find the promises of God are just too good to be true then you need to understand what happen at the cross to understand that you are accepted only by your belief that Jesus rose from the tomb: and that is all.

    Title: The Empty Promises of Easter Isaiah 65:17-25 Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24 Acts 10:34-43 Luke 24:1-12 This sermon was delivered to the congregation in St Oswald’s, in Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 31st March 2013. (A Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and ...read more

    The Easter event is the lynchpin of history. God has given us hope for eternal life. In our culture there is a battle for the mind regarding this truth.

    The Day Before Easter

     | 9,759 views

    The emotions felt by the disciples on the day before Easter mirror the way we react when we don’t understand what God is doing.

    What we celebrate today is the central, defining event of the Christian faith. On this day, for the last twenty centuries, Christians have gathered together all over the world, in remote villages and in crowded cities, in cathedrals and in rented schoolrooms, just as we are doing here this morning; ...read more

    Your Easter Story

    Contributed by Scott Nichols on Jul 18, 2014
     | 6,491 views

    The original ending of Mark's Gospel a first glance seems to inspire little hope; but a closer look reveals how the Risen Lord meets us in the ordinary circumstances of life and invites us to finish the story of His resurrection.

    The little boy was not exactly happy about going to church on Easter Sunday morning. His new shoes were to tight, his tie pinched his neck and the weather outside was just too beautiful to be cooped up inside...so as he sulked in the pew his parents heard him mutter to no one in particular. "I ...read more

     | 11,020 views

    Easter morning, like the Indian summer of the year, has a tender veil of loveliness and mystery about it which links it with both worlds, and makes it a peculiarly appropriate pattern of a life hid with Christ in God. A classic sermon by A. B. Simpson.

    "He showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God" (Acts 1:3). Easter morning is the beginning of a unique and most tenderly interesting portion of our blessed Saviour’s life. It is the ...read more

    The "Empty" Promises Of Easter

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,783 views

    The world's promises are truly empty - they are full of emptiness. But in this Easter sermon, we examine the emptiness that is full of promise. There is amazing promise in the empty cross, the empty tomb, and the empty burial cloths.

    How can God fill you up if you are not empty first? God allows emptiness in your life for one reason - You are empty - Now God has the opportunity to fill you up.

     | 1,129 views

    The resurrection of Jesus Christ has the power to transform our lives in ways that are difficult to put into words. It's an experience that is better felt than explained. Just like the disciples who had to see the empty tomb for themselves, we too can experience the hope and transformation that comes from Jesus being alive.

    Hey guys, Happy Easter! Today we're talking about something epic, something that changed the world forever - the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It's like that moment when Michael Jordan made that insane shot in 1989, winning the game for the Chicago Bulls. It was a moment that defied gravity and ...read more
