Today as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, we will look to the timelessly amazing paradox of the empty tomb. We know it’s glorious!!! We know it’s life-giving!!! But there’s more there we can say.

The Triumphal Entry that we remember on Palm Sunday was something that revealed to the world at large that Jesus was proclaiming to be the Messiah. Thankfully, he was bringing something greater than what the crowds could imagine.
This week we examine how the inevitable uncertainties of life are taken care of by the certainty of the Life that is provided in Jesus.
Thinking about the end of life is something that we spend a lot of time and energy avoiding. In Ecclesiastes chapter seven Solomon tells us that this is something we should consider in order to live wisely, and Jesus takes that one step further in Mark by teaching us that laying down our life for his sake is the way for us to experience eternal life.
