Of course God does outrageous things. But in reality, what insanity would prompt me to follow a God who did anything less?

Easter is God throwing everything at death so that I can give everything to life.

Easter says that every ending ever experienced by man is exquisitely crafted to find its own ending at the feet of a fresh beginning.

Reasonably speaking, we can see the cross as entirely possible. But in considering Easter, we see an empty tomb as entirely impossible. And is it possible that God had to do the impossible to finally get our attention?

There are an incalculable number of things within me that I frantically wish to be emptied of, and despite my most earnest efforts to remove them, they remain. And it is Easter that reminds me that God empties out tombs.

We need to know that our limits do not define our limitations. And an empty tomb does exactly that.
