You’ll Never Guess Where They Found the Body

The city was now quiet.  

The accused was guilty.  

The case closed.  

The body accounted for and sealed away. 

Or at least… it should have been. 

Three days had passed since a gruesome public execution. The body was sealed away in a cold dark tomb. Guards posted at the stone blocking the entrance. Yet when the mans loved ones came to grieve, the guards were gone, the tomb was wide open, and the body had disappeared. 

If this were a true crime podcast, you’d be hooked by now. Honestly, the people in these days were! 

This wasn’t just a whodunnit. This was a case of how this could feasibly even happen?!  

The man’s name was Jesus. He was loved by many, hated by the government and ‘church leaders’ and in turn nailed to a cross like a criminal. 

And three days after he died… His body wasn’t in the tomb. 

Not stolen. Not hidden. He was alive. 

People saw Him. 

Touched Him. 

Ate dinner with Him. 

 And their lives were completely changed. 

This isn’t just an ancient conspiracy theory – it’s the turning point of history. 

Possibly it’s the turning point that you’ve been needing too. 

Because if Jesus really rose from the dead –  

Then maybe you can be forgiven. 

Maybe you can find peace. 

Maybe you’re not  too far gone. 

Maybe no matter how you’ve felt in this life, you aren’t alone. 

At Open Arms Community Church, we believe in asking the hard questions – and discovering even better answers. 

We’re not here to judge you or fix you.  

We just want you to know that there’s more. 

More love. More hope. More purpose. 

And it all starts with an empty tomb.
