Peace Be With You | Easter Sunday

About this episode

The episode discusses the significance of Easter and how Jesus offers peace and purpose to those who are grieving, fearful, and doubting.

The story we’ve been told about life isn’t working. Most of us have placed our hope in ourselves, believing that peace, happiness, and freedom come from looking inward. But this has left us more anxious, less hopeful, and still hungry for meaning. But on Easter, we orient ourselves around a better story. In John 20 we see Jesus meeting three groups of people who represent many of us today. To those grieving, Jesus comes to us as a Gardener making all things new. To the fearful, he is a Peacemaker coming to offer us peace. To the doubting, he is a Pursuer who comes to make himself known. Because of the resurrection, we’re given peace, purpose, and power through the Holy Spirit. Easter is a celebration of the truth that the empty tomb is good news, both for our real lives today, and into eternity.
