"From Death to Life," is based on the remarkable account of the resurrection of Lazarus as recounted in John 11:38-46. This event was one of the most incredible miracles that Jesus performed, aside from his own resurrection. Through this story, we witness how God has the power to raise people from the dead, from beginning to end, it is His sovereign hand at work, awakening us to a new life with Him.

As spiritual leaders, there is a responsibility to guide God's people into a closer relationship with Him. However, what happens when leaders fail in this responsibility? In this passage, we see the key leaders in Israel plotting to kill Jesus, displaying their great propensity to push Christ out of the center of God's plan.

In the following sermon, we'll explore how Jesus' empathy and compassion for sinners can bring comfort and hope to our own struggles. By examining his humanity on display in John's Gospel, we can see how he identifies with our emotions and experiences, especially in times of grief and loss. In John 11:28-37, we witness Jesus weeping with those who are mourning, demonstrating his solidarity with us in our pain. This passage reminds us that we have a God who not only understands our struggles but is also faithful to listen to our prayers and comfort us in our times of need.

In the following sermon, we find Jesus comforting his beloved friends, by pointing to the hope of the resurrection and eternal life found in him alone. While we long and await the bodily resurrection, eternal life is already available here today, by the power of his Spirit. This is the hope for all those on this side of calvary and all those experiencing grief in this hour.
