SHOW NOTES:Why Easter Is More Than a HolidayChristine and Lisa discuss how Easter isn’t just a religious event—it’s the foundation of our faith. They explore how modern culture often minimizes the resurrection, when in reality, it’s the most transformational moment in history.
Resurrection Power for Everyday LifeChristine and Lisa talk about how the same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives in us (Romans 8:11) and why that reality should transform the way we live, pray, and trust God.
Addressing Doubts: Is the Resurrection Real?For those struggling with doubt, Lisa shares historical and biblical evidence for the resurrection, including how 11 of the 12 disciples were willing to die rather than deny what they had seen.
Living in the Light of EasterChristine and Lisa discuss the activation of Easter—how we are called to not just believe in Jesus’ resurrection, but to step into the power it brings. They also reflect on Acts 1 and why Easter doesn’t stop at the Gospels—it continues through the Holy Spirit empowering believers today.
