Mt. Olivet Baptist Pastor Rodney Duckett

Today we continue our sermon series, “Because He Lives” and discover anew some of the greatest blessings we receive as a result of Jesus’ resurrection. Today we focus on the most tangible consequence of Christ’s resurrection—The Church. This community of believers , and our own local church, is meant to be the extension of Christ’s work in our community and our world.  

In today's sermon we highlight the "Greatest" day in history, the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus left us with an Empty tomb however that tomb was filled with tremendous blessings to fill our empty souls. He is Risen Indeed!

During our conclusion of our "Turn Your Eyes" Series we look at the Three Crosses of Calvary. The main cross of redemption plus the crosses of rejection and repentance. These three crosses show us that each day we are faced with a decision - to follow Christ or reject Christ. This is our Palm Sunday focus. We now turn our eyes on to our selves and examine our lives through the three crosses of Calvary.

First Priority

Paul closes this section of the Corinthian letter with a call to therefore trust in the resurrection of Jesus as believers continue to be transformed through their faith in Christ.
