This Easter Sunday, we wrap up our Path to Redemption series by walking through the entire final chapter of the Gospel of Luke — the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Last week, darkness fell over the land. Jesus was crucified, buried in a borrowed tomb, and the stone was sealed. It looked like the end of everything. But God does His greatest work when it looks like all hope is gone.

Three truths from Luke 24:

1. The empty tomb confronts your doubts — Your worst moment is not your final moment. Our infinite God is not limited by what looks to be final.
2. The risen Jesus walks with you in your confusion — Just as He walked with the disciples on the road to Emmaus, Jesus meets you where you are. When you see Jesus clearly, everything else starts to make sense.
3. The risen Jesus calls you to live as a witness — The resurrection doesn't just give you hope — it gives you a mission.

The big idea: The resurrection of Jesus turns desperation into hope — and it calls for a life-changing response.

Key verse: "O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?" — 1 Corinthians 15:55

Next step: Move from simply believing in the resurrection to living as a witness of the resurrection.

Coming up: We'll fill in favorite verses from Luke before launching our next series — Gen 1, a study through the book of Acts exploring what the first generation church looked like.
