Rev Kristin McAtee 3/2/2025 "I AM the Resurrection and the Life"- First Baptist Church of Columbia, MO
Mar 02, 2025
Summary
Summary: In these final days before heading towards his own tomb, Jesus raises his close friend, Lazarus, from the dead. It’s a poignant moment, as Jesus weeps with his friends. They question, as we often do, “Why didn’t you come sooner? Why didn’t you save Lazarus?” In this Scripture, Jesus is avoiding the easy task of saving Lazarus for the difficult task of resurrecting life from destruction. Where do we see this happening in our own lives? How does this impact our faith?
