Elementary
Read Mark 16:1-7: When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb 3 and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?” But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. 5 As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.’”

Developing Disciple
Read Mark 16:1-3. When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?”
What do you think is going through the minds of the three women?
What do you think they expect to find at the tomb?
We know Jesus died on the cross for us. That he endured darkness and the grave so that we could enter his Kingdom. But we often forget the depths in which Christ plunged to rescue us. Why is this?
Turn off all the lights in your room and imagine how dark his tomb must have been. Spend time in prayer thanking him for the sacrifice he made.
Make plans to experience the Resurrection of Christ tomorrow at a church nearby.
