As we celebrate Easter, we discuss what "Silent Saturday" must have been like for those early followers of Jesus. Imagine the pain, struggle, suffering and utter hopelessness that must have filled their hearts after watching Jesus be tortured and killed on the Cross. We tend to look back at Saturday through the lens of Sunday and the resurrection, we know how the story ends - but they did not. The Apostle Paul writes in 1st Corinthians 15 about what the world would look like if Jesus had not risen from the grave and it must have been like what Jesus' friends, family and disciples felt on that Saturday. This is the same hopelessness that many feel in our world today, those who have never heard the life changing message of a risen Savior. In this Easter message we discuss the importance of the resurrection and the Hope it brings to our everyday lives, and how it must motivate us to declare the Good News that Jesus is Alive to everyone we know and come in contact with. From 1st Corinthians 15:12-20
