Season 5: Easter
Episode 4: “Jesus Lives Again!”
Today’s Bible Bite: Matthew 28

Video Story:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dStpHxpZkk0 (God’s Story – Jesus Resurrects)

“Then the angel spoke to the women. ‘Don’t be afraid!’ he said. ‘I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying. ‘” (Matthew 28:5-6)

Jesus had died and his friends didn’t know what to do. They had thought he was the Messiah, but now he lay dead in a tomb…or so they thought! Jesus had been buried on Friday afternoon, but when some ladies, who had been his friends, went to visit on Sunday morning they had the surprise of their lives. The tomb was empty…and an angel told them that Jesus had been raised from the dead! And Jesus proved he was alive. Over the next forty days, Jesus was seen by more than 500 people. They saw his wounds, he ate meals with them, they touched him…he really was alive! Jesus then returned to heaven, but promised that he was preparing a place for all his friends to come and live with him. When everything’s ready, he’s coming back…I can’t wait!

Think about it...
• Jesus’ friends had buried him on Friday. How do you think they felt?
• An angel told the women he was alive, but the disciples didn’t believe them. Why do you think they didn’t believe?
• Jesus proved he was really alive. How?
• Jesus is preparing an awesome place for his friends to live in heaven. Are you Jesus’ friend? If not, you can be. Just ask!
​
Prayer: Thank you, God, that Jesus didn’t stay dead, but came back to life to prove he had conquered sin and death. Thank you that we can be his friends and live forever with him. And thank you for Easter…a time to remember all that you have done for us!
Happy Easter, everyone! Pastor Jane
