What is Easter?

Easter celebrates Jesus’ resurrection and the hope He brings to the world. Over 2,000 years ago, Jesus died on the cross, but three days later, He rose again—defeating sin and death once and for all.

Because of Easter, we have the promise of new life, forgiveness, and freedom in Jesus. Whether you’ve been following Jesus for years or are simply curious about faith, Easter is a time to experience His love, grace, and power in a fresh way.
