Easter is a new beginning, a celebration that by its very nature doesn’t stop, a blessing that is ours for always, not just once a year

Upon reaching Jesus' tomb that first Easter morning, the women were confused that the stone had already been moved and the grave was empty. Where is Jesus?

So many things in life can raise the same confusion and fear. The question remains the same: Where is Jesus in all this mess?

Where is Jesus? He has risen! He is here now! He is here in Baptism, the Lord’s Supper, and His Word. He is here as we live a life of faith and hope, even when there is misery…even when our last great enemy, death, claims us.

The new covenant in Jesus’ blood brings our fellowship full circle, including all God’s people and all God’s promises of all time. That’s a full circle!

Palm Sunday's parade exhibited excitement and enthusiasm about the coming of Christ to Jerusalem; however, as His procession continues to Good Friday their cheers gave way to jeers.

Although our loyalties may change, Christ is faithful to the end. Unlike the crowds, Jesus keeps His focus on His purpose: to suffer and die for the salvation of all people. Since Christ was loyal to His Father’s will, we find confidence in Him at all times.
