In our 2022 Easter special, we feature worship music about Jesus being our healer, the well-known hymn, “Because He Lives,” and a song about Jesus rising from the grave. There are reflections about how the resurrection provides comfort for our experiences with death, grief, and loss. And we feature scripture from Luke 24:1-6 and John 16:33.
