This Day Changes Everything
Collin Wimberly
Matthew 28:1-8
CIT - The angels announce to the woman at the tomb that Jesus is risen from the dead.
Proposition - We find hope and help beyond the tomb because Jesus is risen.
INTRODUCTION:

Dec. 7, 1941 Japanese bombed Pearl harbor, Wake Island, Guam, Malaya, Thailand, Shanghai, and Midway. Forcing The US to enter the second world War. That was a turning point in history.
September 11, 2001 - Two planes flew into the world trade center. Militarily, economically, in the way we think about safety and travel, life has never been the same.

The day Jesus rose from the dead.
We are going to see that day through the eyes of Mary Magdalene.

She had seen him heal the sick, give sight to the blind, even raise the dead.
She believed in Him. He was the Messiah. He was powerful and humble at the same time. He was strong but yet compassionate. For 3 years she followed him.
