It is amazing to consider how God worked out the details in the story of sending His Son to redeem His people in so many beautiful ways. Let’s look at a few of the details surrounding the resurrection of Jesus, how His triumph over the grave fulfilled prophecies in the Lord’s plan, and the transformative hope it provided for all who would surrender our lives to Him.

The historical events recorded in John 18–20 provide a vivid account of the first Easter. In this eight-day plan, Alistair Begg considers the meaning and relevance behind events like Jesus Christ’s surrender in Gethsemane, His death on a cross, and the empty tomb that He left behind.

The First Easter: A Journey to the Empty Tomb

Holy Week is the most important time of the year for Christians. It’s when we remember Jesus’ last days on earth—His suffering, death, and resurrection. This week is a chance to slow down, reflect, and focus on what Jesus did for us.

Holy Week

1600 years ago Christians began calling the last days of Jesus’ life “Holy Week.” This eight-day reading plan will explain what happened on each of Jesus' final days and why those events, while often tragic, are ultimately good news. Each day there will be a short reading from a psalm, one of the Old Testament prophets, and a few verses from the New Testament. There will also be a short devotional to guide you through those passages and see the significance of Jesus' last days on earth.

Easter Explained: An 8-Day Guide to Celebrating Holy Week

Over these 7 days, we are going to focus on the seven sayings of Jesus.  We want to go to the cross and we want to draw some principles, some disciplines, and some habits that we can begin to implement in our lives to help us grow stronger in our walk with the Lord. We want to zoom into these sayings and pay attention to the words not of a dying man but of our Lord and Saviour. 

Join us on this journey together as we approach Resurrection Sunday 2025.
