Our series on Jesus’ “I Am” sayings culminates with his declaration, “I Am the Resurrection and the Life,” taken from John 11:1-27. The evangelists who wrote the Gospel of John are focused on the question of what constitutes “true life,” which they testify is experienced in our lives in the present as much as any afterlife. Roger Dodson returns to share his reflections on the resurrection and living the life Christ calls us to live.
Beyond the Walls – I Am the Resurrection and the Life. We invite you to share this hour of reflection, prayer, meditation, music, and fellowship with the Beyond the Walls global community on 📅 Sunday, August 17, 2025. You can participate via live video as usual or join us in person at: 💒 320 Richmond Street East, Suite 101, Toronto, ON M5A 1P9.
