About this sermon

It’s a mournful scene in John 11:1-45 as Lazarus lies dead and his loved ones grieve his loss. Yet, guest pastor Ian Strauss reminds us that Jesus had other plans, not only to raise Lazarus back to life but also to reveal His power over death. As we draw out truths from this account, we see how Jesus conquered death for all, how we can receive His free gift of life, and how we’re called to live in light of our salvation.
