Dear Church Family,

I love this time of year. Hope you invite someone to one of our Resurrection Sunday services (again, I know every Sunday is Resurrection Sunday, but I like it better than saying “Easter”). Here are some of my favorite Resurrection quotes:

You are not suffering from anything that a good resurrection can’t fix. – D. A. Carson

In the resurrection, life puts death to death. – Mike Williams

Jesus’s resurrection is the beginning of God’s new project not to snatch people away from earth to heaven but to colonize earth with the life of heaven. – NT Wright

Genesis ends with Joseph’s death.
Deuteronomy ends with Moses’s death.
Joshua ends with Joshua’s death.
The Gospels end with Jesus’s resurrection.
And that changes everything. – Tony Merida

The incarnation means he became like us.
The resurrection means we’ll become like him. – Dan Dewitt

Jesus didn’t just do weddings (Jn 2). He did funerals, too (Jn 11). Well, sort of… seems like every funeral Jesus attended the dead got up. – Charlie Dates

Jesus’s resurrection proves that Heaven is not a disappointment we’ll have to settle for. It means we’ll stop settling and start living. – Ray Ortlund

Let us eat, drink, and be merry, for yesterday we were dead. – Russell Moore

We often think of Good Friday as defeat and Easter Sunday as victory. But the gospels present Friday as victory and Sunday as vindication. – Josh Butler

Let no one mourn that he has fallen again and again; for forgiveness has risen from the grave. – John Chrysostom

Feel free to share any of these on your social media page.

Press on,

Mark
