In this Easter sermon, Pastor Matt Sturdivan of Hope Church explores the meaning of Easter and introduces a new series called "Unshakable Faith." He begins by recounting the events of the first Easter morning, referencing Matthew 28:5, where an angel tells the women at Jesus' tomb not to be afraid because Jesus has risen.
Pastor Matt then outlines three key elements of unshakable faith:
1. When we're anxious or afraid, God gives us peace. He cites John 20:19-21, where Jesus appears to His disciples and says, "Peace be with you."
2. When we're weak, God gives us power. The pastor references Isaiah 40:29 and 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 to illustrate this point.
3. When we're uncertain, God gives us direction. He uses Proverbs 3:5-6 and James 1:5 to emphasize God's guidance.
The sermon concludes with an explanation of how to find unshakable faith by building one's life on the solid foundation of Jesus Christ. Pastor Matt presents the gospel message, explaining that we are all sinners in need of salvation, which is available through faith in Jesus. He invites listeners to trust in Christ as their Savior and Lord, offering a simple prayer for those ready to make this decision.
