A phrase came to mind as I thought about Easter and the
Resurrection ...

As a matter of fact, this is interesting and important to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and to other Christians who believe and have faith in the living Christ. The fact that the Resurrection applies to
everyone is one reason we share the good news of the gospel in the Michigan
Detroit Mission.
"The universal resurrection became a reality with the Resurrection
of Jesus Christ (see Matt. 27:52–53). On the third day after His death and
burial, Jesus came forth out of the tomb. He appeared to several men and women,
and then to the assembled Apostles. Three of the Gospels describe this event.”

I am inspired by the video, “Because of Him - Easter 2018”, found in the Media Library at lds.org
“In the span of one week, Jesus rewrote humanity’s
story. This Holy Week, He can help you start to rewrite your own. This Easter,
we invite you to follow the example and teachings of the Savior by loving
others, loving God, and making changes that will lead to lasting joy and peace
in your life. Because of Jesus Christ,
each of us has the chance to become something more.This Easter, how will you
change #BECAUSEofHIM?” — mormon.org
