To Easter, Part 4 – To Live

April 24, 2011

Easter stands at the center of the Christian faith. Every year we celebrate the holiday and remember the last events of Jesus’ life, and in our culture even people who don’t follow Jesus join in the celebration by joining in egg hunts, buying Easter baskets, and new spring clothes! But do we really understand Easter? Beyond the Sunday-school answer, “Jesus died for our sins” do we really know what we’re celebrating?

This week we arrive at Easter – our destination in this series. Jesus is dead – crucified and laid in the tomb. It’s the end of the Jesus movement. Kill the messiah, kill the movement – right? So why are we still talking about him? How did Christianity make it out of the first century? Join us as we explore the resurrection – the event that changes everything.

This week we take the next step to Easter by looking at Israel’s anticipation of God’s New Covenant and the messiah. What happens when hundreds of years of expectations collide with the reality of a Jesus?

This week we continue our journey to Easter as we explore what God did with the mess man made of his creation. How did God take the first step toward restoring what was broken?

To Easter, Part 1 – To Trust

This week we begin the journey to Easter by going to the beginning of the story. What happened between God and man that brought us to where we are, and what is our first step in moving To Easter?
