Sermon - 'The End of the Beginning'
By the end of Mark 15, with Jesus dead and buried in a tomb, it seems like everything he came to do has also ended.

Perhaps the Old Testament has led to nothing? Unless it’s all part of God’s plan… Unless it’s only the end of the first chapter, with much more to follow… Unless death is not the end and there is new life to follow…
