Never again will death have the last word.

Explore the Easter story as God, through the miraculous resurrection of Jesus after his death on the cross, continues to meet us in new life. You'll be led through a transformational look at how Jesus' resurrection--the crux of the gospel--restores us to wholeness with God.

Each lesson in Resurrection guides you through a specific passage of Scripture, using the down-to-earth language of The Message, and takes you on a discipleship journey of understanding how the gospel changes our lives and shapes how we live in our neighborhoods.
