On the first Resurrection morning, Mary Magdalene wept at an empty tomb, not yet grasping the power of the risen Christ. In this urgent message, Dr. Michael Youssef declares that Jesus’ question—“Why are you crying?”—still confronts us today. Scripture is clear: Christ died for our sins and rose bodily on the third day. He is not in the grave. For those who have not surrendered to Him as Lord and Savior, fear and hopelessness remain. But for believers, the very power that raised Jesus from the dead dwells within us. The Resurrection calls us from despair to delight, from doubt to bold faith. Repent, believe the Gospel, and proclaim with confidence that death is defeated and Christ reigns.

In this Good Friday message, Dr. Michael Youssef reflects on Jesus’ final words from the cross: “It is finished” (tetelestai). With this declaration, Christ proclaimed that the work of redemption the Father sent Him to accomplish was fully completed—once and for all. The cross fulfilled God’s plan of salvation, and its power continues to transform lives across every nation and generation. Because of Christ’s finished work, forgiveness and eternal life are freely available to all who repent and place their trust in Him.

In this deeply compelling message from Leading The Way's AWAKE Boston Rally, Dr. Michael A. Youssef examines Jesus’ teaching on the end times in Matthew 24-25.

As the world reflects the conditions Jesus described—deception, moral decline, and global turmoil—believers are called to wake up, stand firm in Truth, and proclaim the Gospel.

The return of Christ will bring joy for those who trust in Him and judgment for those who reject Him. Now is the time to turn to Christ, live faithfully, and be ready for His return.

AWAKE Boston was a powerful prayer rally as part of Leading The Way’s nationwide AWAKE America movement—calling believers to stand boldly in Truth and seek God for spiritual awakening. Learn more at AWAKEAmerica.com.
