Easter Matters

Jesus, Part 14

March 31, 2024 • Chris Edmondson • Luke 24:1–12, Matthew 27:37, Mark 16:1–4, John 20:2, John 20:19

Many died still claiming that Jesus was their Savior. So what do we make of this defining event—the one that became the foundation of their faith . . . and of ours?

THE BIG IDEA: The resurrection of Jesus created Christianity & launched the church.
