Welcome to Beech Hill Church this Easter Sunday. Today we’re celebrating the heart of the Christian faith—the resurrection of Jesus—and exploring how real people responded when they first encountered the empty tomb.Pastor Chris takes us into John 20:1–29, where we meet three very different reactions to the risen Jesus:John — quick to believe, recognising the truth with quiet confidence.Mary — confused and overwhelmed, yet met with compassion and clarity by Jesus Himself.Thomas — hesitant and honest, needing reassurance before he could fully trust.Each response is deeply human, and each one invites us to reflect on our own walk with Jesus. Are we quick to believe like John? Are we mixed up and searching like Mary? Are we tentative like Thomas, needing space to ask questions?Pastor Chris opens these moments up with warmth and insight, helping us see that Jesus meets every kind of heart—steady, struggling, or uncertain—with grace.Thanks for joining us. We pray this message encourages you, challenges you, and draws you closer to the risen Christ.Reading: John 20:1 – 29 link https://www.bible.com/bible/59/JHN.20.1-29.ESV

Today, Pastor Chris continues our journey through the book of Philippians, and we’re stepping into one of the most powerful, personal passages Paul ever wrote—chapter 3, verses 1–11.This is where Paul opens his heart and asks a question that still shakes us today: What is Christ worth to you? Would you give up comfort? Status? Even your home?Paul says, “I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.” That’s not theory. That’s a man who actually lost everything—and still counted it as gain.In this message, we’re going to explore what it means to treasure Christ above all else. Not out of guilt. Not out of pressure. But out of a deep, joyful realisation that knowing Jesus is better than anything we could ever hold onto.So as you listen today, let this question settle into your heart: If Christ is truly your greatest treasure, what might He be inviting you to lay down so you can know Him more?Todays reading https://www.bible.com/bible/59/PHP.3.1-11.ESV
