The resurrection of Jesus is a God Promise, something so grand and miraculous only God can fulfill. Old Testament prophets and Jesus foretold it. The Bible is full of promises God has made to his people and there is a book we give to St. John’s visitors on weekends entitled “199 Promises of God.”
Enjoy this Easter season by affirming God Promises for you!
