Easter 2026: Blessed Are Those Who Believe
Smitchell   -  

Pastor Bo’s Easter message reframes “Doubting Thomas” as a man whose belief was deeply shaped by loss, disappointment, and a singular encounter with Jesus. Once boldly committed, Thomas’ faith faltered after the crucifixion. Even so, Jesus met him in his doubt, not with rebuke, but invitation. His declaration, “My Lord and my God,” reveals a personal and deeply restored faith. This teaching emphasizes that belief is a process, not a moment, and it is formed through struggle, not its absence. Doubt doesn’t disqualify us. In fact, it can lead us to Jesus. True belief brings life, the full, purposeful, abundant life promised by Jesus.
