He Is Risen: What the Myrrh-Bearing Women Teach Us About Faith & Courage

About this sermon

Christ is risen! In this powerful Sunday homily, we reflect on the Gospel of the Myrrh-Bearing Women—those faithful souls who approached the tomb in sorrow, only to become the first witnesses of the Resurrection. This sermon explores the quiet yet profound moment when God revealed the greatest event in history not to kings or the powerful, but to humble, faithful women. Their courage, devotion, and unwavering love made them the first “apostles to the apostles,” entrusted with proclaiming that death has been defeated. We also reflect on Joseph of Arimathea’s bold faith, the early Church in Acts, and what it means for us today to live as missionary disciples. The Resurrection is not just something we believe—it is something we live. 🔥 In this homily, you will discover: Why God chooses the humble over the powerful How faithfulness in small acts leads to great mission What it means to “show up” when life is uncertain How to carry the message of hope in a broken world The Myrrh-Bearing Women teach us that even in fear and uncertainty, grace prevails. Their story is our calling. 👉 Christ is risen. He is not here. And He is calling YOU to witness. 0:00 – Christ is Risen: Opening Prayer 0:18 – The Quiet Power of the Resurrection Scene 0:56 – Joseph of Arimathea’s Courage 1:49 – The Faithfulness of the Myrrh-Bearing Women 2:08 – The Empty Tomb: “He Is Risen” 2:30 – Why the Women Were Chosen First 3:14 – Fear, Awe, and Transformation 3:54 – The Early Church in Acts: Service & Growth 4:40 – The Resurrection as a Lived Reality 5:05 – Faithfulness Without Certainty 6:11 – 3 Ways to Live as Missionary Disciples 6:19 – 1.
