Easter Sunday 20th April 2025 // Morning // 1 Peter 1:3-9 // Because He Lives

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches 1 Peter 1:3-9 at Easter morning worship on 20th April 2025 in First Ards. Peter doesn’t begin with problems, he begins with praise. Jesus is alive and that changes everything. His resurrection gives us new birth into a living hope, an inheritance that can’t perish, spoil, or fade. That hope holds in suffering. Even when faith feels fragile, God keeps us. Our future is secure, not because we’re strong, but because Christ is risen. So take heart: we don’t follow a memory, we follow a living Saviour. And because He lives, we live too.
