Welcome back, amazing explorers! Today, we’re diving into one of the most jaw-dropping stories in the Bible – the story of Lazarus in John chapter 11! 

Have you ever wondered what it really means to believe in life after death? Well, buckle up, because we’re taking a trip back to ancient Bethany, where something absolutely unbelievable happens!

Picture this: Lazarus is gone. His sisters, Mary and Martha, are heartbroken. But then – Jesus steps in. And what happens next? A miracle so big it changes EVERYTHING! 

We’ll follow Mary and Martha’s emotional rollercoaster – from their deep sadness to their incredible faith. We’ll hear about the moment when Jesus, feeling all the sorrow around him, does something surprising… he cries. And then – the moment no one saw coming – Lazarus…well you’ll see.

But of course, the Pharisees are NOT happy about this miracle. Their reaction sets the stage for even bigger things to come. Let’s jump in!
