The Resurrection and the Life

By Jim Shaddix

| Mar 23, 2014

What does it mean for Christ to be our resurrection and life? How does believing that truth change our lives? In this message on John 11:1–44, Jim Shaddix reveals our need hope and help, especially as we consider death and life. He highlights four applications for us to live out right now.

Don’t deny death or wait for a sign to prepare for it.
Trust Jesus for resurrection and life, now, and forever.
Be afraid of dying, but don’t be afraid of death.
Tell everyone how to overcome death through Jesus.
