Because here, when it seems like the life and beauty of Jesus was buried for good, we witness something with far more life and far more beauty than we can possibly fathom.
Breaking through the ground.
And as we approach the empty tomb of Jesus here in our time today, we will reconsider what his life means for the broken and the barren places within us.
Now, as we approach God's word together, let's pause and just ask for his grace, ask for his life-giving love to move through our time.
Heavenly Father, we do thank you for the gift of life and breath in this day, and we thank you for the gift of your word.
We bring before you every part of our lives, our joys and our sorrows, our anxiety and our excitement, our calendars and our contingencies, every part of who we are, we bring it before you.
Would you meet us in this space?
Jesus, help us abide in you as we engage with your truth.
Holy Spirit, we ask you to move in and through this time in John's gospel account, and as we read your living word, may it read us and restore us to new life with you.
In Jesus' name.
Amen.
So chapter nineteen of John's gospel account ended with Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea placing the dead body of Jesus in a new tomb and a garden.
The one thing that is certain up to this point is that his body has been broken.
His life is barren.
But just as a seed is buried in a garden to cultivate new life, there's something being cultivated here, and we start to see it shine through in our passage today.
Here's what we're gonna do.
I'm gonna read through our verses in John 20, verses one through ten.
Then after doing so, we're gonna reflect on two big aspects of Jesus' resurrection from the dead.
First, we'll reflect on the historical reality of his resurrection, and then in the personal reality of his resurrection.
We need both of those things.
