4/5/26 - Easter - Same King. Different Crown. - Pastor Jason Fritz

About this episode

Pastor Jason Fritz discusses the significance of Good Friday and Easter Sunday, inviting listeners to reflect on their faith and the message of Jesus' resurrection.

As we head into Easter weekend, I cannot wait to join you for both Good Friday and Easter Sunday services. Good Friday will be a quieter, more reflective time as we sit in the weight and meaning of the cross. We’ll walk through the final words of Jesus, each one revealing His heart, His mercy, and the price He willingly paid for us. It’s a moment to slow down, examine our hearts, and remember the depth of His love as we come to the table together. Then on Easter Sunday, everything shifts. We celebrate the resurrection! The moment that changed everything. We’ll look at how people responded to the empty tomb: some worshiped, some doubted, and some rejected it altogether. And in that, we’re invited to see ourselves. Wherever you are spiritually right now, steady in your faith, full of questions, or just exploring, I believe this message will meet you in a meaningful way. More than anything, I hope this weekend feels like an open door for you to invite friends and family to experience the people of Illuminate and the gospel of Jesus. Bring whatever you’re carrying and encounter the hope that only Jesus offers. I’m praying that God meets you personally, whether in the quiet reflection…
