Easter 2023

Easter 2023

More than just another "Jesus Revolution" - we need a "Revelation." When Jesus is revealed, the revolution happens. The message today centers on three key words: “curtains” and “anchors” and “tombs”. Have you ever been on the outside of something, wondering what it would be like on the inside, on the other side of the curtain? Have you ever felt woefully inadequate for the storms of life and wondered why you feel so adrift at sea, in need of an anchor? Have you ever felt spiritually dead inside and wanted so much to have a transcendent purpose in life - than just the cold dark tomb of aimlessness? Have you ever been “homesick at home”? You’re home but you sense something is missing? The condition of the whole human race is homelessness and exile, writ large. We feel cut off – like something is missing. Easter changes that. Welcome!

We welcome you to Stone's Hill today!

A typical Stone's Hill service has:

* music (so feel free to sing out);

* some announcements (things that are upcoming that you can be a part of);

* a message out of the Bible (God speaks to us through his Word);

* and an opportunity for you to respond to the message (either immediately in the case of a decision that needs to be made OR in the future as you live out the message in your daily life.)

So relax and enjoy your morning! We're so glad you are here!
Message Text: Matthew 27:50-54
Introduction
Three simple words to change your Easter!
*
Message Outline
Curtains.
Anchors.
Tombs.
*
Message Points
The curtain was torn in two - you now have access.
The anchor goes into a realm that we cannot go - you now have stability.
The tombs opened - you do not have to fear death anymore.
*
Conclusion
The torn curtain says “There’s a way into God's presence for all.” The lodged anchor says “There’s stability in every life storm.” And the split tombs tell us “There’s a way out of the grave.” The gates of the tomb, locked since the primal disobedience of the first couple, have been burst open by Jesus’ death and resurrection. This is God’s commentary on the passion of Christ. Curtains and anchors and tombs. Three words to change your Easter.

Why not align yourself with the Savior of the world and receive communion in His Name today?
