Why Bother With the Resurrection? | Easter at United

About this episode

Pastor Leonce delivers a compelling message on the significance of the resurrection of Jesus Christ and its implications for believers today.

What if death isn't the end of the story? This Easter Sunday, Pastor Leonce delivers a bold, compelling message on the claim that changes everything — the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 15, Pastor Leonce confronts one of history's most extraordinary events with raw honesty and compelling logic: if the resurrection didn't happen, Christianity is sentimental fiction. But if it did? Everything changes. In this sermon, you'll discover: Why the resurrection is not just a historical event but a present power available to every believer How the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now lives in you Why resurrection life only flows where surrender happens How God specializes in rewriting endings, even yours Whether you're carrying heavy burdens, wrestling with doubt, or feeling stuck in defeat, the empty tomb has a message for you. Jesus didn't just inspire us. He invaded death itself and won. ___________________________ Thank you for listening to United Church's podcast!
