He is risen!

Posted:03-24-2008
He is risen!  He is risen indeed!  These words have been spoken for centuries on Easter Sunday since the days of the early Church.  The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the heart of the Christian faith.  Jesus’ death would have no affect on us had He not risen from the dead.  His resurrection conquered death and provided us the opportunity to overcome the finality of death.  Because He lives, I can live.  I can live today, and I can live tomorrow.  I can experience His power now to live as I should, and I will experience His power when I face death to live eternally in heaven.  That is why we boldly and gloriously proclaim, He is risen!

I hope you will join us next Sunday as I begin a new sermon series through the book of James.  This New Testament book was written to fellow believers in order to help them understand how to live the Christian life.  This book is very practical in nature dealing with a variety of life issues.  You will come to realize you have faced practically every issue we will study.  The good news is that every issue has a biblical, godly response you can apply.  I hope you will join us each week.  I also hope you will invite someone who needs to learn how to apply Scripture to everyday living.  The book of James will help us grow deeper in our walk with Christ.  It is a book for everyday people who want to experience Christ in every way.

In Christ,
