Hope in Action: Mary

About this episode

The episode explores how Jesus meets Mary Magdalene in her grief and the formation of resurrection hope in our lives.

John 20v11-18 with Joy Schlichter Hope takes shape in the voice of Jesus, the one who meets Mary Magdalene in her grief outside the empty tomb and calls her by name. Through Mary’s story, we’re invited to consider how the spirit forms resurrection hope in us. Not confidence in outcomes, but trust that even in places of loss, confusion, and disappointment, Jesus is still leading us toward life. Bridgetown.church/teaching
