Is there anything lasting in this world? And if there is a God, what is his real motivation? Listen in today to this Easter Sunday sermon, as we conclude our journey through the book of Ephesians.
Tangible Evidence (John 20:19-31)
While the claim of the resurrection of Jesus is a supernatural and miraculous claim, there is tangible evidence for it - both for the fearful disciples hidden in a locked room on the evening of the first Easter, for doubting Thomas, and for modern people like us. Listen in today as we listen to the evidence, as we believe what Thomas saw with his eyes and touched with his hands, and receive from God His greatest gift - the gift of life itself.

True Spirituality: Surprise and the Cross (John 12:19-26)
Surprises are some of the best parts of the human experience. But what is it that causes the greatest surprise of all (the resurrection of Jesus Christ) to lose its luster over time for so many? Listen in to today's special Easter sermon that seeks to answer the question, how do we rediscover the wonder of the surprise of the resurrection of Jesus? May "Christ is Risen!" surprise anew throughout all the days of our life.
