When you think about Easter, what is the first thing you think of? Is it the women who were there, the faith of the disciples, or the richly layered way that Jesus showed up? When we celebrate Easter every year, it can be easy to forget all the things that are revealed to us through the story of Jesus’ resurrection and all the ways that this story matters to us every day. Join hosts, Elisa Morgan, Eryn Eddy Adkins, and Vivian Mabuni as they dive deep into Mark 15-16 to gain fresh perspective of the events of Easter.

Notes and Quotes:

“He chooses women because He understood that women were faithful to Him and He wanted to honor their faith.” —Vivian Mabuni

“God calls us forward to new life. He died on a cross for all of our sins.” —Elisa Morgan
