On this powerful Easter Sunday, Pastor Erwin Raphael McManus invites us into a story we all think we know—but perhaps have never truly seen. We revisit the empty tomb not just as a moment in history, but as a mirror to our present, a call to ask ourselves: Are we truly alive, or just existing?

This message explores the difference between knowing the end of Jesus’ story and experiencing the resurrection for ourselves. With vivid imagery, cultural references—from The Sixth Sense to John Wick—and deep scriptural insight, we’re reminded that God's purpose isn't just to make us right, but to make us alive. The resurrection isn't just proof that Jesus conquered death—it’s an invitation for you to live fully, right now.

So why do we keep searching for life in dead places? And what would it mean to choose life—not just someday, but today? This is your moment to reclaim your humanity, rediscover your purpose, and step into the plot twist God has written for you. Jesus is alive. And now, through Him, so are you.
