Easter Morning

What else is there to say?  We serve a risen Savior!

The Power of Christ's Resurrection

“By His sovereign grace, God can bring good out of our failures, and even out of our sins. J. Stuart Holden tells of an old Scottish mansion close to where he had his little summer home. The walls of one room were filled with sketches made by distinguished artists. The practice began after a pitcher of soda water was accidentally spilled on a freshly decorated wall and left an unsightly stain. At the time, a noted artist, Lord Landseer, was a guest in the house. One day when the family went out to the moors, he stayed behind. With a few masterful strokes of a piece of charcoal, that ugly spot became the outline of a beautiful waterfall, bordered by trees and wildlife. He turned that disfigured wall into one of his most successful depictions of Highland life.”  (Swindoll, The Quest For Character, Multnomah, p. 49.)

What power does the resurrection of Christ have for those who believe?  It has the power to transform, to make new, to restore the broken and hurt to rightness with God, beautiful works of art of the Father above.

Join us this Easter week as we celebrate the power of Christ through his resurrection. 

Striving to know Christ and make him known,

Risen and Alive!

Each Easter the Churches around the world gathers together to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  This Easter will be no different for us a church family.  We will worship in singing praises to our King, in hearing the Word of God Spoken, and in the gathering of the body of Christ to encourage one another into deeper faith.  But in addition to all this we will worship God by hearing about the work of the risen Savior in the lives of those around us.  Christ is no longer in the tomb.  He is alive!  He is risen!  And we know this as the people of God because He is alive and at work in, through, and around us.

Come join us to hear how God’s Word and work has been displayed in the lives of His children, the Church.  He is risen!  He is risen, indeed!  Praise to His glorious name.
