The Easter story is so familiar – what about it can stir afresh the imagination of worshipers?
The theme of resurrection is a challenging claim – how shall we climb that theological mountain?
How can we meet the hearers’ charged expectations?
This webinar will help you:
- Jumpstart planning for this year’s Easter sermon;
- Recast the message of the power of the Resurrection;
- Explore the possibilities for sermons in some of the classic Easter biblical texts, including those in this year’s lectionary.
