Risen Conqueror

"HE IS RISEN!" Those were the words of the angels at the tomb on that very first Easter Sunday. There were no Easter eggs to be hunted, and there was no Easter Bunny (or Peter Rabbit) bringing Easter Baskets to good boys and girls, but there was indeed a stone rolled away, an empty tomb, and thanks be to God, a Risen SAVIOR!! Mary and Mary Magdalene came to the tomb looking for Jesus' body, only to find He was not there. Today...countless thousands of people, who at no other time of the year do so, flocked to churches all across America possibly hoping to find Jesus, I hope they found that He WAS THERE! Unfortunately, I believe that for many churches, today was just business as usual. The sad truth is that Jesus was not there, and has not visited those churches in years, if ever. But I am grateful to God that there is a movement spreading across the globe of church planters who are serious about making the name of Jesus famous. Today was no exception for them. I can not wait to hear from some of them about all that God has done in the lives of thousands of people who went to church this Easter and encountered the Risen Conqueror, Jesus!
