Easter at Graceway

When Jesus rose from the grave, it wasn’t simply an inspiring story or a tradition we remember once a year. The resurrection interrupted history itself. If the tomb is truly empty, then death no longer has the final word, fear loses its grip, and the future opens in ways we never imagined.

Easter isn’t just another holiday on the calendar. It’s the moment everything changed.

    UNSTOPPABLE: A Surprise Conversion (Acts 9:1-31)

    Sunday March 29th, 2026
    SCRIPTURES:

    But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. (Acts 9:1-2)

    Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?” And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.” (Acts 9:3-6)

    “It is hard for you to kick against the goads” (Acts 26:14)

    But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel. (9:15)

    So the church throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria had peace and was being built up. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, it multiplied. (Acts 9:31)

    PERSONAL/GROUP REFLECTION
    • Where is God interrupting your current trajectory, and are you resisting or responding?
      • Saul’s story reminds us that divine grace often comes as disruption, not affirmation. What patterns, assumptions, or directions in your life might God be confronting right now?
    • Is your faith producing visible transformation, meaningful incorporation, and active mission?
      • In Acts 9, conversion is not abstract; it immediately reshapes identity, embeds Saul in the church, and sends him on a mission. Which of these three fruits is strongest in your life right now, and which is weakest?
    • Who are the “Ananias” and “Barnabas” figures in your life, and who are you becoming for others?
      • Saul’s calling required community to be confirmed and sustained. Are you humble enough to receive guidance and belonging, and intentional enough to help others take their next step in Christ?
