John 20:1-18
“Jesus lived and died to help us see these hard truths—to lay bare the sins of the world. Not recognizing his resurrection means not seeing that our lives are worth what he did for all of us, for the whole world, not seeing that our bodies matter and how we live in this world together as bodies matters. Not recognizing Him means missing the new life that God brings out of death.”
