What happens when we die? It’s a question we can’t avoid—and one that Easter boldly answers. Jesus didn’t offer a theory. He made a claim: “I am the resurrection and the life.” The question is simple—and personal: Do you believe this? The evidence might surprise you.

Life can feel a lot like an escape room.There are doors everywhere. Voices shouting advice. Clues that seem important. And the pressure to choose the right path before time runs out.
