Easter at Parkside | Matt Robinson

Topic: Easter 2024

Scripture: John 20:13-16

•

During Jesus’ life a lot of people wanted to know who Jesus was. At his crucifixion he had a sign telling everyone that he was, “The King of the Jews.” When he rose from the dead, even his closest friends discovered a deeper understanding of who he was. In John's gospel account, Jesus called out to Mary Magdalene and she didn't recognize him at first. Once he called out her name, it clicked. She wasn't expecting to see her Rabbi at that moment, but there he was ALIVE. Jesus has offered each of us the opportunity to hear him call our name. This Easter we have a chance to celebrate that he conquered death and called us his own. At first we might not recognize or expect his voice, but he is surely calling to us all.
