He is risen!

This proclamation and statement of faith is the center of the Gospel that we as Christians proclaim. Because of our over focus on the death of Jesus to save us from our sins, we have sometimes become people who wait around waiting for the day to come when we can leave this place. The resurrection of Jesus Christ ushers in the New Creation and the Kingdom of God lived out here and now by his followers as we wait for it to be made fully known when Christ returns. "His is Risen!" becomes the proclamation of the gospel in every moment of our lives as we see the world's brokenness and breathe new life into it.
