Death has been called "the great equalizer" because it affects everyone. Physically that may be true but spiritually it is not. Because of Jesus rising from the grave, we live. As we approach Easter Sunday, we think about the cross and everything it means. It means sacrifice. It means death. True. But it also means freedom! It means love! It means life! We have life because Jesus died on the cross and then, three days later, He rose again! And through His resurrection, sin's power over us is broken and we "Break Free From Death."

Romans 6:5-11; Easter Sunday.

Matthew 27:45-54

Matthew 5:43-48

Philippians 4:6-7.

Do you ever doubt God? Maybe He has called you to do something and you think, "But I've made too many mistakes." Or maybe the thing He asks seems impossible because its more than you think you can do. Or, maybe you think you don't have the skills needed to do what God asks - its more than you've done before and you don't feel up to the task. We all doubt God at times but would it comfort you to know that one of the most righteous men in all the Bible had the same doubts? He felt inadequate and unworthy, he doubted God and he doubted his ability to serve. He doubted it all!

Matthew 6:24-35.
