A Message from the Empty Tomb

This sunrise Easter sermon reflects on Matthew 28 and the powerful “message from the empty tomb.” Bro. Jacob Mahaffey invites us to imagine that first resurrection morning, the women’s grief turning to joy, and the stone rolled away not to let Jesus out, but to let us see in. Jesus’ bodily resurrection is presented as the foundation of Christian faith, the “receipt” that our sin-debt is fully paid. Because He lives, we worship, we have hope, and we are adopted into God’s family. The sermon closes by challenging believers to “go and tell” the good news of the risen Christ.
