Jesus Raises the Dead (For Real)

The story of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus reaches its dramatic conclusion as Jesus raises his beloved friend from the grave. This story both recounts a historical miracle and reveals a deeply spiritual gospel truth: Dead things don't stay dead around Jesus. With a word from his mouth, Jesus calls each of us out of our hopeless situations and into new life. Will we "hope against hope" and cooperate with his mighty work in the world so that others see his glory, too?
