Immerse: Messiah - The Resurrection
Jesus is both the means and the model of resurrection.
Prayer: Almighty God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, grant, we pray, that we might be grounded and settled in your truth by the coming of your Holy Spirit into our hearts. What we do not know, reveal to us; what is lacking within us, make complete; that which we do know, confirm in us; and keep us blameless in your service through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Memorize: 1 Corinthians 15:24: And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.
Leaders: For memorizing the verse, discuss with your group the idea of repeating the verse together and/or each taking turns repeating it. Feel free to work on memorizing at the beginning and end of your time together.

Frank presented that our bodies peak in different ways at different times. Who do you want to know at their peak? Why?
What was your Easter like? How did you keep a focus on Christ’s resurrection?
Why is Jesus’ resurrection the key to our faith?
The apostles were able to see Jesus after he came back to life, and that was critical for their belief. We obviously don’t have that possibility. So, if you do believe, why? If you don’t, why?
