The resurrection turns grief into joy and fear into mission. Jesus is alive, and He still calls His people by name. Law: We look for life in dead places, and we assume loss has the final word. We grieve without hope and cling to what we can control. Gospel: Jesus is risen. He speaks our name, opens our eyes, and sends us with good news that death does not win.

Law: We want a King who solves our problems quickly and confirms our preferences. When Jesus comes differently than we expect, we drift toward disappointment or resistance.
