LETTER FROM STAFF

Bry Shirin | Digital Content Specialist

I hope you had a wonderful Easter! Praise the Lord that Jesus died and was resurrected so that we may have life in Him.

This week we’re featuring a piece from John Greco that I just think is so interesting. It’s titled “We Were Never Meant to Die,” where John essentially walks us through how death was never supposed to be a part of our story, and how Jesus’ death and resurrection restores God’s hope and plan for our lives. I definitely recommend you give it a read — or you can always listen to it on Boundless — The Audiobook. I hope you will be encouraged by John’s article and remember that you can live the resurrection life today!
