"Alive & Risen," dives deep into the heart of Mark 16:1-7. Pastor Akil guides us through the early morning journey of Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, as they set out to anoint Jesus' body, only to find the tomb empty and an angelic message that would alter the course of history.

In this sermon, we'll explore the significance of the empty tomb and the angel's message, "Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him."
