This Sunday we will continue in our sermon series “Experiencing the Cross” and consider Mary Magdalene’s experience of the resurrection in John 20:1-18. Mary experiences the sorrow, confusion, and pain of losing the one that healed her of seven demons, the one she walked with for years, and her mentor and teacher that had given her hope. Her sorrow and confusion will be replaced with great Joy as Jesus appears and reveals himself to her first. Jesus wants us to remember the events of the resurrection, hear him call us by name, and believe. Our response to the resurrection should be to put our faith in him, that he is who he said he is, the Son of God our Savior, proven by the resurrection. He is Risen!

From Series: "2025 - Experiencing the Cross"

This Easter season join us as we take a look at seven characters from the New Testament and their different experiences of the crucifixion, death, and resurrection of Christ. From Barbaras, to Pilate, to Jesus, and even Thomas, the people that witnessed the cross of Christ experienced different aspects of the Gospel which caused many of them to believe. As we look at each of these characters we hope that it will illuminate the Gospel in your heart and that you will experience the cross in a profound way this Easter.
