The Raising Of Lazarus

We hope you all have had a great week and spent some time outside enjoying the beautiful weather. It’s good for the mind and the soul!

We are in week 2 of our series “The Road To Easter”, where we are looking at some of the most significant episodes of Jesus’s life that led to the cross and the resurrection. While the cross and the empty tomb of resurrection are the end of that road, Easter is the culmination of God’s eternity-spanning plan to rescue us, His people, from the clutches of sin and death and give us new life, a hope, and a future wrapped in His never-ending love. And as we take an extend look at the interactions and events that led into Easter, I believe there is so much we can learn from and grow through in our mission to live out the hope and resurrection of Jesus in our own lives and share that hope with the world around us!

There are so many important moments in Jesus’s life as He made His way to goal of His mission on Earth that it has truly been a chore trying to narrow them down for the few short weeks we have before Easter. Last week we looked at the Jesus’s trial in the desert with the enemy and how Jesus’s handling of it can help us as we walk through our own deserts trials. This week we are going to zero in on Jesus’s miracle of “The Raising Of Lazarus” and examine how this showy and yet very intimate moment in Jesus’s life can speak into our lives! Alight, let’s make a start of it!
