The Great Transformation- Easter Sermon

Change is in the air when God is involved. The resurrection of Jesus is synonymous with change. Old gives way to new. Death gives way to life. Deadness is transformed into something new and vital and life-giving. Easter is about the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, and about the triumph of eternal life over death. With the resurrection come new hope, new possibilities, new life, new promise, and change. Let us consider some of the changes, some of the transformations that the resurrection of Jesus has already made. Before, life was filled with despair. But now it has purpose, direction and meaning. Before, death was the end. But now it is just the beginning.
