17 This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!

4 For we died and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives.

Introduction: How to be a New Creation in Christ

What has changed for you this Easter? Anything? If you have been on the Christian faith journey for some time, you will have experienced a number of Easter weekends. Have they made a difference in your life?

Living as a New Creation in Christ

This Easter, I sense that God is calling each one of us to a life that is reshaped by the Easter message. Jesus' resurrection isn't just a historical event. It's the catalyst for a new creation, a new way of living that starts now and stretches into eternity.

The Power of the Resurrection

In this new creation, in this new life, we find the power to overcome sin and live in a way that reflects the transformative love of Christ. We are invited to see justice, beauty, and relationships through the lens of the sunrise of God's new world.

Now that really would mean that this Easter had changed us!

Living Today as Part of God's New Creation

Today, let the truth of the resurrection shape your actions and your attitudes. As you interact with others, view each person as a part of the new creation God is unfolding. As you begin to see others in this way, let it guide you towards actions that reflect the hope and love of the risen Christ.

What a difference that would make in the world!
