The Easter Story Begins With A Baptism

Before there was a crucifixion, and before there was a resurrection, there was a baptism. Three years before Jesus died, He was baptized. We don’t usually associate his baptism with Easter weekend because, the truth is, three years is a long time, and many things happened in Jesus’ life and ministry between His baptism in the Jordan River and His grave experience in the garden tomb. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in how the story ends that we forget where the story begins. But in this message, we’re going to change that and focus on what we can learn from the beginning of Jesus’ story – His baptism.
