In the middle of this Holy Week, KC and I want to help you pause and prepare your heart for the celebration of Jesus’ resurrection.
We know it’s easy to get caught up in the busyness of the holiday and lose sight of what we’re really celebrating. So, these Easter reflections will invite you to slow down and simply behold the Lamb—because whatever you behold, you will be held by.
On the road of faith, we all encounter “Thomas times”—bumps full of doubt. Some of us jump right over them, while others may stumble, falling into a pit of confusion. And the result … we become a Doubting Thomas.
I’ve been Thomas and I bet you have too, or you know someone who is right now.
There is no shame if you struggle with doubt. God invites your questions and wants to turn your confusion into clarity just like He did for Thomas.
Imagine what it was like for Thomas when Jesus, His Master and Friend, was crucified? The shock, the sorrow—but maybe he wasn’t simply a doubter; maybe he was a seeker … an honest seeker?
We just celebrated the most important event in the history of Christianity – the resurrection of Jesus. Joni Eareckson Tada – one of my mentors and dear friends – and I were interviewed about the walking dead and what our resurrected body will mean to us one day. Have you ever thought about what your resurrected body will be like?
For some of you who are experiencing physical challenges now and maybe for those of you who are crying tears over your son or daughter’s physical challenges, may this be a word of encouragement.
