Around Christmas time it’s not uncommon for us to do everything we can to ignore the darkness in this world in the hopes of enjoying the holidays. Of course we often find that trying to ignore the darkness leaves us feeling a little bit alone. But the truth is that Christmas has never been about ignoring the darkness or pretending that everything is OK. No, Christmas has always been about a light that shines so brightly in the darkness that the darkness cannot overcome it. In this message we will learn more about who this light is and how he came to save us.

Have you ever longed to see death destroyed? Think of all of the havoc death has wreaked and the pain that it has caused. Well in I Corinthians 15 Paul points us towards a day where death will be no more. A day where the one who seemed to swallow everything in his path will be swallowed up in victory.

Death’s Defeat!

He appeared to who?!

Have you ever wondered how it could be possible for bodies that are buried and decay to ever be raised to life again? The idea almost seems inconceivable. And even if it were possible, do we really want to be stuck in our bodies forever? These are a few of the questions that Paul addresses in these verses. Let’s see what he has to say.

The Nature of the Resurrection

How do we deal with the tension between the reality of death and the promises of resurrection? What does it look like to grieve in hope? How can facing death give us a greater appreciation for the resurrection? How does distancing ourselves from death end up distancing ourselves from the depths of God’s love for us? How does Jesus show us what it looks like to cling to the promises of God without denying the reality of death? 


Death, Grief, and Resurrection Hope

Paul tells the Corinthians that if we have put our hope in Christ for this life only then we are above all the most to be pitied. Why does he say that? In this message we will consider what it was about Paul’s life that would lead him to make this statement and we will consider what it would look like for us to imitate him in this even as he was imitating his precious Savior. We will also rejoice that Christ has indeed risen again from the dead proving that there is nothing to pity about a child of God.
