Stop Looking For Dead Things — Resurrection Sunday | Pastor Georgia Hill @ LifeChurch Riverside Detroit

"Why do you look for the living among the dead?" It was the question posed to the women at the empty tomb, and it remains the challenge for every believer today.THE MESSAGEResurrection is more than a historical event; it is a personal reality that demands a shift in our "complicated memories." Too often, we forget the promises of God in the heat of a trial, choosing instead to search for life in dead mindsets, dead relationships, and dead activities. Drawing from the tenacity of Rizpah, the justice of the "Hurricane" Carter story, and the miraculous timing of Lazarus, Pastor Georgia Hill reminds us that resurrection power is operating in us right now. Because Jesus got up, we have the power to leave the graveyard behind and step into the new thing God is doing.A WORD FROM PASTOR GEORGIA"Memory is complicated by time, fear, and self-interest. We often want the benefits of faith without the sacrifice of the cross. But resurrection hope is for the dark nights and the lonely times. Stop searching for Jesus in the graveyard—He is alive, and since He got up, we can get up too."KEY SCRIPTURES📖 Luke 24:5-6 "Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!"📖 John 11:25 "Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die.'"📖 2 Samuel 21:10 (The Story of Rizpah’s Tenacity)📖 Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."RESOURCES & NEXT STEPS✨ New Here?
