Pastor Don Moldstad compares the constant reminder of mortality to a "Death Church." We find hope in Jesus' resurrection, which brings us into the "Life Church." Through Christ, death is overcome, offering believers eternal life.

Believing in Jesus grafts us into this living lineage, ensuring our future resurrection like Christ, the firstfruit.
