Let the Laughter Begin – Mark 6:1-8
Easter Sunday. The events of Friday hung over Jesus' friends like a dark cloud. How would the women get that big stone that was rolled over the tomb out of the way? When they saw it was already moved and that the body of Jesus was not there, they trembled and were astonished. Breaking into joyful laughter, they could hardly believe what they learned. Jesus was alive again!
