Not For Ourselves: A New Story

from Redeemer Brooklyn Hosted by Redeemer Brooklyn

04.05.2026 | In this week’s sermon by David Lee, we explore the profound significance of Easter as more than just a religious observance, but as a transformative event that offers genuine hope in the midst of darkness and despair. Key Points: The resurrection of Jesus is the heart of the Christian hope, capable of rewriting the narrative of our lives even during our most difficult seasons. Our culture often attempts to deny, fight, or mindlessly accept death, but the reality of the empty tomb challenges our ultimate view of life and death. The resurrection serves as God's intervention in history, promising a future of bodily resurrection where all that is good and truly loved will be restored. Through the resurrection, death is transformed from an executioner into a "gardener of life," signaling that because Jesus defeated sin and death, his love is the ultimate, enduring reality. Common Questions Answered: How can we truly celebrate when there is so much brokenness, war, and personal loss in the world? Why does the resurrection of Jesus matter for our daily lives? Is the Christian hope just about disembodied souls in heaven, or does it involve something more physical?
