They Tried to Erase Easter!

There was quite the row in the United Kingdom this season as Cadbury Chocolates was accused of trying to erase Easter from England. No less than the Prime Minister herself entered the fray. While this turned out to be a tempest in a teapot, the idea it raised is valid; what would happen if Easter never happened? This message from 1 Corinthians 15:12-20 looks at that question. HT to Pastor Kyle Idelman for sparking our thoughts.

The First Week of Jesus Public Ministry: Day Five

John 1:19-2:11 record the events of the first week of Jesus' public ministry. Just as the first 100 days set the tone and direction of a new president's agenda, so looking at the start of Jesus' work shows us the priorities, plans of purposes of what he came to do. This new series will walk through that first week. On day five, we will consider what it means when Jesus promises, "You will see greater things."
