lead-up to easter
mini-SERIES:
turn your eyes
upon jesus
who was he? who is he?
Ever feel like or say to yourself, ‘if there really is a God, He has let me down?’
What if this Easter season, God wants to meet you where your disappointments and doubts seem unresolvable? What if God wants you to know He’s not absent, distant or powerless but instead He is pursuing you to give you a hope that does not disappoint nor fade away?
In anticipation and preparation for Easter this short series will give attention to portraits of Jesus, who had the audacity to say, “If you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen the Father (God).” So, if we want to know what God is like and why God would have anything to do with “outsiders” like you me, we can turn our eyes to Jesus.
If Jesus is the God-Man or “God with skin on,” what do Jesus’ life, death and resurrection declare about Who He was, Who He is and why that matters for your life and mine?
“And He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” And Peter answered and said, “The Christ of God.” But He warned them and instructed them not to tell this to anyone, saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed and be raised up on the third day.”
