Formation by Resurrection

April 5, 2024

Summary

Life after death… the resurrection is what we celebrate and, Jesus’ experience of this, makes Easter Sunday one of the holiest day of the Christian year. But resurrection, sounds like it’s not practical until after death right, what good is it for now? Like a book that sits on the shelf at home, never being used, collecting dust, it has no relevance or meaning to our lives today.
In this series, over four Sundays we’ll be looking at what Jesus’ resurrection means for you and I today. It’s about living out immortality now, and so being in a life of “formation by resurrection”. The series is attempting to take us from Easter Sunday to resurrection life. Sermon topics
