Jesus’ Resurrection: History’s Most Important Morning

This exciting book explores one of the most important events in history – when Jesus rose from the dead three days after dying on the cross. Written especially for kids ages 8–12, it explains why the resurrection happened and what it means for us today.

You’ll learn about the Feast of Firstfruits in the Old Testament and how it pointed to Jesus’ resurrection. Follow along as women discover the empty tomb, disciples race to see for themselves, and over 500 people witness the risen Jesus! The book explains how Jesus appeared to his followers for 40 days, even eating meals with them, before ascending to heaven.

But this isn’t just history – the book shows why Jesus’ resurrection matters for you. It explains how Jesus conquered death so that everyone who believes in him can have eternal life. You’ll discover what the “already–and–not–yet kingdom” means and learn about the amazing new Jerusalem that awaits believers.

With engaging illustrations and clear explanations, this book helps kids understand this crucial part of the Christian faith in a way that’s both meaningful and exciting. Perfect for curious young minds who want to learn more about Jesus’ victory over death!
