Jesus comes and turns grief into joy, just as He promised.

Faith in the risen Christ involves a personal encounter with Jesus and hearing Him call

your own name.

The death and burial of Jesus, while obscene and gruesome, is the divine and glorious plan of God.

Jesus steps into the middle of the collision of heaven and earth, and by bearing the brunt of their differences, He unites the two.

Jesus boldly and courageously steps toward His mission to demand the deliverance of His followers.

Just as Jesus is sent by the Father, so are we. Just as Jesus is loved by the Father, so are we.

Jesus intercedes for us to show and share with us the Glory of God through

separateness from the world.

Jesus prepares His disciples for life without His physical presence by promising, trouble, the Holy Spirit, joy, intimacy with the Father, and victory.

Jesus begins to wrap up his farewell discourse with a highly relatable analogy that stretches our understanding of the intimacy of our relationship with Christ, what that means for us, what we are to do now, and what the result will be.
