Recreate Church, Pastor Michael Shockley—Service, April 13, 2025

What Nick and Joe Didn’t Know Today, Pastor Michael is covering the second part of the Story of the Cross, the Burial.   Remember, there are three parts to the Story of the Cross: DeathBurialResurrection Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus asked Pilote for Jesus’s body so that they could bury it before it became dark, as was Jewish custom of the day and the Sabbath was about to start.  Pilate gave them permission to do so and they wrapped Jesus in clean linen and placed him in a tomb, carved from the rock. Where earth sees a grave, heaven sees a garden! Today’s verses are found in 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4, John 19: 38-42, and John 12: 24.
