Prayer Journey —Resurrection Life

What does resurrection life look like? To leave behind the old way of life; to yield to new life in Christ. To rise above worldly desires and hope, to the hope of an empty tomb; a tomb that cannot contain death. What does it look like to encounter the resurrected Jesus. To see him, to […]
