Easter holds a special place in our hearts because it brings together both familiar faces and newcomers, sparking curiosity and contemplation. Amidst the joyful atmosphere, we invite you to ponder a profound question: Who is Jesus? It's intriguing to realize that virtually everyone has heard of him, yet the depth of his significance varies greatly. From being a historical figure to a profanity, Jesus occupies a spectrum of perceptions. But what sets Easter apart is the transformative narrative it embodies—Jesus rising from the dead. Without this pivotal event, Jesus remains merely a figure of the past. Yet, his resurrection challenges disbelief, as even his closest followers initially doubted until they witnessed the unimaginable. Just as our waitress at Waffle House shared an unexpected truth, the disciple John, an eyewitness, recounts the awe-inspiring events surrounding Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. Despite initial skepticism, John's testimony invites belief, not just in historical events, but in a living, transformative faith. As we delve into the narrative of Easter, we confront our own doubts and uncertainties, echoing the journey of Thomas and countless others who have sought answers. Yet, amidst the uncertainties, there's an invitation—a call to explore, to question, and to discover the profound reality of who Jesus is. So, whether you're a skeptic, a seeker, or a faithful believer, you're invited to join us on this journey of discovery, where doubts are welcomed, questions are embraced, and hope awaits. Come, explore, and experience the transformative power of encountering Jesus.
