Sunday's Coming!
Jerry Branch
Luke 24-47
What did Jesus accomplish on our behalf?
After seeing the pictorial dramatization of the events leading up to Easter, does the Easter Message end with the empty tomb of Christ? Or does the 'concept' of ''It's Friday, but Sunday's coming'' extend beyond the Easter story? Is the story still going on? And IS there still more to come?
