What does the resurrection of Jesus actually mean for your life today? In this Easter sermon from Matthew 28:1–10, we follow the first witnesses to the empty tomb—two women who expected death but encountered the risen Christ. Through the angel’s announcement and Jesus’ personal appearance, we see that the resurrection is not just a historical event, but a reality that changes everything. Jesus was truly dead—publicly verified and beyond dispute—making His resurrection all the more powerful. This message confronts the way we view guilt, sin, and our past, and reveals that the risen Jesus has authority over everything we thought was final.
