What happensPermalink
Three women bring spices to anoint Jesus’s body, but the tomb is open and an angel declares, “He has risen.” Jesus gives the Great Commission and ascends to Heaven.
Why it mattersPermalink
Jesus goes before the apostles to Galilee. In His resurrection, as in His life, He goes before us and gives us instructions to take up our own crosses and follow.
