They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together and saying, ‘It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon.’ (Luke 24:33-34, NIV)
As we continue in the Easter season, the focus remains on the risen Lord Jesus. He is alive, and that changes everything. In the reading from Luke's gospel, we see two downcast disciples leaving Jerusalem. When Jesus reveals himself to them, however, their entire mood changes and they rush back to tell everyone the good news - Jesus is alive!

Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot. They asked her, ‘Woman, why are you crying?’ (John 20:11-13, NIV)
For Mary, the first Easter day began with weeping and sadness. Not only had Jesus died, but now it looked like his body had been removed. Yet her overwhelming sadness rapidly becomes unbelievable joy - Jesus was not dead, but alive. Why not join us this Sunday, as we see again the great news of Jesus that can turn our sadness into great joy.

*Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?’ (John 11:25-26, NIV)
As we get closer to Holy Week and Easter Day, our readings start to show us more about who Jesus is and why Easter is so important and so wonderful. As we look at Lazarus, we'll see the promise of eternal life shown clearly. We'll also see how Jesus is the only one who can make that possible for us. Why not come along on Sunday, and see more?
