Happy Easter! In the eighth, and final, episode of the Journey Through Holy Week podcast, Father Wappes preaches about what does the resurrection actually mean for your everyday life?

In his Easter Sunday homily, Father reflects on why the risen Christ is the most transformative reality we can encounter. Drawing on Scripture, the witness of the first disciples, and the struggles we all face, this episode wrestles with the harder question of Easter: not just did it happen, but does it matter? Discover what a risen life actually looks like for disciples today and why the enemy can write many things in the story of your life, but never the final word.
