Road to Resurrection

The following is an Easter event we put on at our church. This is the 4th year we've done it. I remember when my dad originally walked me around the grounds here and talked to me about the idea he had to turn the place into "Jerusalem of Jesus' day" and do a walk-through depiction of the trials, crucifixion, and resurrection of Christ. It sounded a bit far-fetched...I was short-sighted.

What stands out to me the most is that it takes so many people doing so much to make it all happen (oh yeah, and a lot of prayer and the hand of Almighty God). 99.9% of it is done by volunteers/members of the church. There's construction, set design, costumes, cast, extras, sound, lighting, props, marketplace, setup/cleanup, etc. By the time the invitation to receive Christ is given each night, it is actually the people of the church that have collectively presented the gospel message.
