As we conclude our Jesus the Redeemer series,  Pastor Zach's Easter sermon from Luke 24:1–12 centers on the resurrection of Jesus and its significance. Pastor Zach emphasizes three key points: It happened, it had to happen, and it happened for you. He explains that the resurrection is not just a metaphor but a historical event with eyewitness testimony, fulfilling what Jesus said must happen for our salvation. The message ultimately invites each person, no matter their past, to find forgiveness and confidence in the risen Christ, holding onto the “receipt” of his resurrection as proof that their debt has been paid.
