God's Grand Story, Pt. 9: Jesus Dies & Lives Again

Everything in Jesus' ministry led up to a singular crisis climax: his death and resurrection. Even though Jesus told his disciples that his death was coming, they couldn't wrap their minds around it: the Messiah wasn't supposed to die prematurely. Upon the first reports of his resurrection, it seemed to his closest followers as an unrealistic fantasy. Yet this dramatic event was the centerpiece of God's plan and became the foundation of his plan to restore a broken and fallen world.
