Listen Later

Most people pay attention to actions more than to words. They hear what you say, but they see more what you do. We we do in life echoes in eternity.

No matter what you are going through today, don’t quit and do not be defeated.

You are doing the best you can, Remember, giving up is not who you are. You may pause, take a long breath, pivot and then keep going. In faith and by God’s grace, you can overcome. You can be at peace again soon of you trust in God and are patient.

Possible Date for Christ's Resurrection


Many scholars believe that Christ died and rose from the dead again in AD 30. 

Even more prefer a date in AD 33, although champions of several other dates can also be found. If the events recorded in the gospels took place in AD 33, then this day, April 23, 33 is the probable date for Christ's resurrection.

To be clear, the Bible does not explicitly specify the precise date of Jesus’s crucifixion and it is not an essential salvation truth. But that does not make it unknowable or unimportant. Because Christianity is a historical religion and the events of Christ’s life did take place in human history alongside other known events, it is helpful to locate Jesus’s death—as precisely as the available evidence allows—within the larger context of human history.

In the Pharisaic-rabbinic calendar commonly used in Jesus’s day, Passover always falls on the fifteenth day of Nisan (Exodus 12:6), which begins Thursday after sundown and ends Friday at sundown. In the year a.d. 33, the most likely year of Jesus’s crucifixion, Nisan 15 fell on April 3, yielding April 3, a.d. 33, as the most likely date for the crucifixion.
