The empty tomb

Loading player...
The tomb of Jesus is surely one of the most wonderful things in the world, precisely because it is empty. There is no other empty object in the world that provokes such veneration, such fascination, such adoration precisely because, and only because it is empty.  But before it was empty, there was a day when it was occupied. The story of whose tomb it was, why it was used for Jesus, how Jesus was laid in there is a story of two secret disciples who went public. It's a story about fear turning into faith, cowardice turning into courage. It's a burial story about buried faith coming to life.
