And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit. And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth shook and the rocks were split. The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection they entered the holy city and appeared to many. Now the centurion, and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were happening, became very frightened and said, “Truly this was the Son of God!” Many women were there looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee while ministering to Him. Among them was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

In the days leading up to Easter Sunday, let's take some time to stop, dive deep into Jesus' journey to the cross, and invite Him to bring you fresh revelation of this season. It is helpful to have a journal with you as you reflect on the questions, and to track what God reveals to you in this time!
Easter celebrates the faithfulness of God. He always comes through. Jesus’ death and resurrection remind us that even when life is difficult and the outlook is bleak, God is still working —and His plan is better than you can imagine.
Resurrection Sunday delves into more than just the historical event of the cross—it’s a powerful reminder that God’s love conquers all, even death itself. Through Jesus’ we see a story of true sacrifice, and the ultimate victory of his death, burial, and resurrection. On this journey we will help you experience the transforming power of love at the cross, the purpose in the waiting season, and the hope of resurrection in your own life.
