Text: John 20:24–29

1. Intro / Hook

Easter was last week. And for some of you… something happened.

• You walked in curious.
• You walked out stirred.
• You walked in wondering.

You walked out thinking:

• “Maybe this is real.”
• Maybe Jesus is who He said He is.
• Maybe the resurrection actually matters.
• Maybe this is bigger than one Sunday service.

But now it’s a week later.

• And life is back.
• Routine is back.
• Pressure is back.
• Questions are back.

And for some of you, the wonder of Easter is now colliding with the reality of everyday life.

• Because it’s one thing to feel something in the room.
• It’s another thing to trust Jesus when Monday comes.
• It’s one thing to be moved in a moment.
