Easter 2026
April 05, 2026
Pastor Aaron celebrates Easter by exploring the heart, power, and resurrection of Jesus through the story of Lazarus in John 11 and 20. We discover that Jesus meets us exactly where we are—offering truth when our faith wavers and tears when our hearts break—because he is not distant from our pain but enters into it. We learn that just as Lazarus couldn't raise himself, we are powerless to save ourselves, but Jesus holds the power to defeat sin and death through his resurrection. We are challenged to trust in the risen Christ who offers new life now and the certain hope that he will one day make all things new.

Parables
The stories Jesus told and what they mean for your life today . Why did Jesus teach in stories? Because the deepest truths about God are often found in the ordinary moments of life. In the parables, Jesus takes everyday things, a lost sheep, a dinner party, a farmer planting seeds and uses them to show us what God is really like and what it means to follow him. This summer, we’re spending seven weeks in the parables from Luke’s gospel. Whether you’ve heard these stories a hundred times or this is your first time, you’re invited to come and hear them fresh. June 27/28–August 8/9
