They were afraid that if they let Jesus continue, everyone would believe in Him. Moreover, these religious leaders also began to target Lazarus. In this teaching, Rashad explains how the story of Lazarus points to a greater reality; In Christ, death is not final.

In this sermon, Rashad reminds us how Jesus sought out Peter to graciously remove the shame and guilt he carried after denying Him. The resurrection power stands as a reminder that God's love covers everything. To put it simply, failure isn't final. Indeed, His power and His love for us are far greater than our sin and shame. 2023-04-2327 minThe Garden Church // Sunday TeachingsThe Garden Church // Sunday TeachingsEaster | Just the BeginningText: Matthew 28:1-10 Teacher: Rashad Clemons This Sunday we celebrate the joy and victory of Christ’s resurrection!
