What difference does an empty tomb make?

In this powerful Easter message, Pastor Tony Stephens walks us through Luke 24:1–12 and the unforgettable question asked by the angels on that first Resurrection morning:

“Why are you looking for the living among the dead?”

Through the eyes of the women at the tomb and the journey of a doubting disciple named Peter, we discover that the resurrection is not just a historical detail—it’s a life-altering reality. This message explores why the empty tomb still matters today for every broken heart, every searching soul, and every person tempted to look for life in dead places.

If Jesus really rose from the grave—and He did—it changes everything.

• Our past is forgiven

• Our present has purpose

• Our future is secure

Whether you’re a lifelong believer or just beginning to explore faith, this message will help you stop searching in the graveyard and start living in resurrection hope.

Key Scripture: Luke 24:1–12 (CSB)

Main Point: Because Jesus is alive, we must stop searching for life in empty places and respond in faith to the risen Savior.

Let today be the day you stop living like it’s Saturday—and start running toward the Risen King.
