The message of Jesus' death and resurrection holds hope for every one of us. Yet it's a great challenge to try and understand it all; how could someone actually die and then be raised from the dead? Jesus' own followers were devastated and never anticipated that He would come back.

After the resurrection, as Jesus returned to greet his friends, they became eye witnesses to the truth that He was alive! Their testimony holds true as evidence for all of us that Jesus is risen and that we have hope of new life in Him. No matter what fear, brokenness, addiction, or pain we have gone through in life, He desires to fill us with a true and living hope.
