Easter is a bold celebration of Jesus’ victory over death and the restored relationship we can have with God. Join us on a journey to Easter and experience how each day of Holy Week points to the unending love of God’s Kingdom with these YouVersion Bible Reading plans.
“The key events of the Lent-Easter cycle – the death of Jesus Christ on the cross on Good Friday and His glorious breakthrough to new life on Easter morning – are not merely a summoning but an empowering to a life of reckless confidence regarding our past, our present and our future. It is confidence and nothing but confidence, immense, unshakable, reckless, raging confidence that leads to love, to life, to freedom, to Jesus.” – Brennan Manning
“Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him.” Romans 6:8-9
