Resurrection and Mission

You understand, of course, Paul says "if Christ is not raised from the dead, we are of all men most to be pitied." Over and over again, the Gospel writers tell us that there's something about the resurrection that changes everything. And we have to understand the difference that it makes, not just to our own personal lives but also to mission. I'd like us to consider what difference does the resurrection make when we think about mission work going on, on campuses where RUF campus ministers and interns work, where church planters are plowing hard ground, where missionaries are learning new languages and new cultures in order to make Christ known where He's currently not known. What difference does the resurrection make to all of that? My desire this evening is to just tell you the story, the event that you find in John chapter 20, unpack a few details, show you some things you may have missed, and then draw some conclusions and applications.
