In this special Easter Sunday message, Pastor Matt Ayars proclaims the resurrection of Jesus Christ as the foundation of our faith and the force that shapes every part of the Christian life.

Why do we worship on Sundays? Why do the sacraments matter? Why do we believe the Bible is the Word of God? It all comes back to the empty tomb.

Drawing from Matthew 28:1–10, Pastor Matt explores how the resurrection:

• Shifts our worship from the old creation to the new

• Makes the bread and cup come alive in communion

• Gives baptism its meaning

• Validates Scripture as the Word of the risen Lord

• Redefines true power—not through domination, but through love and humility

• Gives us the confidence to face death and live as a new creation

This episode will encourage your heart, deepen your faith, and remind you that Jesus didn’t just rise in the past—He is risen now, and His power lives in us.

“If Christ is risen, then the world is a different place—and so are we.”
