Hope Lives: Easter Celebration

This message centers on Pilate’s question—“Which Jesus do you want?”—challenging us to examine the versions of Jesus we often create to fit our own desires, whether for power, success, comfort, or control. It reveals how, like the crowd, we can be influenced by self-interest and distorted faith, yet reminds us of the stunning truth: Jesus took our place in a great exchange of love, dying for us while we were still sinners and rising again so we could live transformed. In response, we’re invited to trust the real Jesus, receive His sacrificial love, and follow His way by choosing to love others beyond every divide.
