Take Off The Grave Clothes | April 26, 2026

About this episode

Rev. Tanner Fox discusses the metaphor of grave clothes in relation to Jesus' resurrection and our own spiritual renewal.

Rev. Tanner Fox | John 11:38-44 Jesus reveals the power He has over death in this story with Lazarus. The same power that will bring Him back from the dead, defeating our final enemy and inviting us to walk in newness of life! Even after He is brought back to life, He is still wrapped in the grave clothes that He died in and needs the help of others to lay those aside and to truly embrace His resurrected life in Christ. How might this metaphor become an invitation to each of us?
