About this listen

Have you ever found yourself standing in the middle of a loss so deep that you could not see the victory already in motion? In this message, we explore the sacred space of the in between, that quiet and often confusing moment between what we have lost and what God is currently resurrecting. Looking at the account of Mary Magdalene and the disciples at the empty tomb in John 20, we see how easy it is to focus on the darkness before the sun rises. Like Mary, we may walk with heavy hearts, assuming an empty space means something has been taken rather than transformed.

The resurrection was already a reality before the disciples fully understood it. Even when we are bewildered or glimpsing truth without clarity, God is actively working to bring forth new life. Through Romans 6, we discover that our old identities were buried with Christ so we might walk in freedom. We are invited to stop holding onto what God has already buried and instead embrace the new life that is our reality today.

Take a moment to reflect on the areas of your life where you feel stuck in the dark. How might God be transforming your perspective of loss into a celebration of new beginnings? We invite you to step into your new identity today, trusting that hope is found in living out what is already true.
