The prelude of Easter music is followed by worship as we rejoice in the resurrection and the promise of new life. Experience the triumphant sounds of children ringing Alleluia bells, the soaring music of Carolina Brass, organ, and choir, and an inspiring sermon from Rev. Dr. Layne Smith.
In his sermon, Layne reflects on how if Easter is truly to happen, it must meet us where we live—in the very places where darkness and grief are real. We cannot arrive at Easter without first walking through the darkness of Good Friday. Only then can resurrection truly take hold.
