Direction-April

April's Direction - includes a church leadership special feature

Paul gets it, and wants to share it with everyone. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead, he says to the Romans, lives in you. I think it’s time for an Easter revolution where we rediscover the full revelation of Easter – Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again! We have died with him that we might rise to new life with him and be with him for all of time and eternity.

Chris Cartwright
