This Easter sermon from Pastor Chad centers on the idea that “stones” throughout the Bible tell the story of the gospel: from the stone of beauty in creation showing God’s perfect design, to the stone of judgment revealing humanity’s sin and need for justice, to the shepherd’s stone pointing to unexpected deliverance through Jesus. He explains that on the cross, Jesus took the judgment we deserve, and through the resurrection, symbolized by the rolled-away stone, proved His victory over sin and death—something no human effort could fabricate or stop. Ultimately, the message builds to the “overcomer stone,” representing the eternal invitation to salvation through Jesus alone, emphasizing that true life, forgiveness, and hope come not from our own goodness but by surrendering to Him and receiving the new life He offers.
