Easter 2026: Empty + Empty = FULL
from Houston's First Baptist Church · host Gregg Matte
Easter reveals a profound truth about God's mathematics: Empty Cross + Empty Tomb = Full Life. While we often try to fill our hearts with temporary things like money, approval, or success, these are like broken cisterns that cannot hold water. Jesus emptied Himself on the cross, taking our punishment for sin, and rose from the dead to offer us abundant life. The women who discovered the empty tomb learned that God knows exactly what we're looking for, even when we don't. Through Christ's sacrifice and resurrection, we can exchange our emptiness for His fullness, finding true satisfaction in the living water only He provides. He is risen indeed!
