EASTER SUNDAY | APRIL 9

Follow along with the events of Easter week, leading to the death and resurrection of Jesus. Each day, scripture readings and reflection prompts will guide us to pause and meditate on the reality of Easter.

SUNDAY


READ
Matthew 28:1-10

PAUSE + REFLECT
  • How has Jesus resurrected your life?

  • The prophecies of the bible and each promise of God see their fulfillment in the resurrection. How does this impact your view of God’s faithfulness?

Family Worship

Each day, we’ve provided a family element for those with younger children (toddler – elementary) that ties into the theme of the adult devotional. Whether it’s in the morning, at mealtime or at bedtime - we encourage you to read, talk, and pray together! We’ve included both scripture and a passage from the Jesus Storybook Bible that goes along with the day’s theme. Choose whichever is best for your family for the daily reading. We’re praying for God to move in the hearts in your home this Easter.


READ ABOUT IT
A fun way to engage kids with scripture is to act it out!

Jesus Storybook Bible: God’s Wonderful Surprise (page 310)
Luke 24:1-7

TALK ABOUT IT
Guide discussion and let kids ask their own questions too!

1. Talk about this story through the different characters like the guards at the tomb and Mary who saw the risen Jesus face to face.
2. What if Jesus never rose? Talk about what it means that He defeated death.
3. How does this story give you confidence in God?
4. What questions do you still have about this story?
