First Easter - Library Edition

When hope died on a Roman cross, no one expected what came next.

Three days after Jesus's crucifixion, his tomb stands empty and Jerusalem buzzes with impossible rumors. Through twenty powerful chapters, experience the first Easter through the eyes of those who lived it—Mary Magdalene's desperate vigil at the tomb, Thomas's demanding skepticism, Peter's guilt-ridden journey to faith, and James's transformation from doubting brother to believing church leader.

From the sealed tomb to the ascension, witness how ordinary people grappled with extraordinary claims: that death had been conquered, that love had triumphed, and that the carpenter from Nazareth was exactly who he claimed to be.

Based faithfully on the Gospel accounts, First Easter brthe resurrection story to vivid life through the eyes of fishermen, family members, and faithful women who became history's first witnesses to the impossible. Their forty-day journey from despair to hope changed everything—including them.

Some victories look like defeat. Some endings are actually beginnings.
