    Emotions ran high for those who witnessed the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. How those emotions changed and what changed them made the difference between faith and disbelief.

    For many of us, when I say the word "Easter" or "Resurrection Sunday" or even "Third Day" it brings things to mind. If you are a Christian you may think of the empty tomb, or of the angels and Jesus’ visit to the disciples. If you are not a Christian you might think of the Easter Bunny or "maybe I ...read more

    The resurrection is factual story. It is a sign pointing to the identity of Jesus and it is for us - the Church - to share with others! This is an all-age talk outline which could be developed in various ways.
