Teacher: David Marvin. Happy Easter! 🎉 Today we celebrate the hope we have because of the empty tomb—Jesus is alive!

As we wrap up our Back to the Garden series, we turn to John 20 and the moment Mary Magdalene discovered the stone had been rolled away. What seemed like the end of the story became the beginning of new life. In that garden, the risen Jesus called Mary by name—and everything changed.

Because the tomb is empty, death has been defeated. Our lives no longer have to be marked by fear, shame, or hopelessness. We’ve been invited into God’s family, given a new identity, and sent with a message worth sharing: Jesus lives—and that changes everything.

Join us this Easter as David Marvin walks us through this powerful scene and reminds us that because Jesus rose, we can live with purpose, peace, and unshakable hope.

Jimmy Peacock’s story of redemption, healing, and surrender is a powerful display of God’s relentless pursuit and transforming grace. From years of addiction, fear, and isolation to freedom through Christ, Jimmy found new life by embracing biblical truth, community, and the forgiveness of Jesus. His journey—from hiding in shame to walking in purpose—shows how true freedom is found not in self-reliance, but in surrender. Through marriage, recovery, and discipleship, Jimmy’s life is now marked by faith, restoration, and a passion to lead others toward the same hope he’s found. His testimony is a reminder that no one is too far gone for the grace of God.

Teacher: Josh Fortney. Today, we kick off our Easter series, Back to the Garden, a new series that begins in Eden and leads us toward the cross and the empty tomb. In Genesis, we see the world as it was meant to be—marked by peace, purpose, and an unbroken relationship with God. But the moment sin entered the story, everything fractured. We feel that same brokenness today—in our relationships, in our work, in our world.

On Palm Sunday, we remember that Jesus didn’t come just to improve our lives—He came to restore what was lost. His journey into Jerusalem marked the beginning of restoration. This week, we’ll see how the ache we carry is actually a longing to return to the Garden—a longing that only Jesus can fulfill.

Join us as we look back at what we were made for, confront the reality of where we are, and look forward with hope to what Jesus came to restore.
