He is risen! He is risen indeed! Welcome to Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church on this Easter morning! We all come to this Sunday on different paths. Some of our paths are more well worn than others. Some of us travel this path out of duty and compromise. Perhaps for some of us, we are just discovering or exploring our path of faith. Whatever path you have taken this day, please know that all parts of you are welcome here.

It is my prayer that you will hear the deep notes of God’s promise of new life for you and our world through our worship this day. I pray through our liturgy and our song that you will experience the grace and new life Christ offers us all, and that we will be nourished on our varied paths.

If you would like to go deeper in faith, there are myriad opportunities on the back page of your bulletin this morning. It would be our great privilege to walk this journey of life and faith with you.

With great hope,

Rev. Matthew Ruffner

W E L C O M E TO P H P CTrusting that all belong to God. Living like we belong to one another.

*Please rise as you are able

GatherinG around the Word “We all want new life. We want to know that the last word hasn’t been spoken, we want to know that the universe is on our side, we want to know on Friday that Sunday will eventually come. That is why the cross continues to endure. It’s a reminder, a sign, a glimpse, an icon that allows us to tap into our deepest longings to be part of a new creation. Because that’s how the universe works. That’s what Jesus does. Death and resurrection. Old life for new life; one passes away, the other comes. Friday, then Sunday.” – Rob Bell, Love Wins

Help us to be people who believe, proclaim, and live the resurrection. Amen.

sermonSeven Essential Questions: Who are you looking for? Rev. Matthew Ruffner

response to the Word *affirmation of faith together From the Declaration of FaithOne: Of what are we certain in this Easter season? All: We are certain that Jesus lives. He lives as God with us, touching all of human life with the presence of God. He lives as one of us with God. Because he shares our humanity and has bound us to himself in love, we have an advocate in the innermost life of God.

*Hymn 248 (verses 1 & 2)Christ Is Risen! Shout Hosanna! HYMN TO JOYChrist is risen! Shout Hosanna! Celebrate this day of days!Christ is risen! Hush in wonder: all creation is amazed.In the desert all-surrounding, see, a spreading tree has grown.Healing leaves of grace abounding bring a taste of love unknown.

Christ is risen! Raise your spirits from the caverns of despair.Walk with gladness in the morning. See what love can do and dare.Drink the wine of resurrection, not a servant, but a friend.Jesus is our strong companion. Joy and peace shall never end.

prayers of the people and the lord’s prayer togetherOur Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen.

*prayer of dedication

*Hymn 268 (verses 1-3) Crown Him with Many Crowns DIADEMATACrown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne;hark, how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own!Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee,and hail him as thy matchless King through all eternity. Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side,rich wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified:no angel in the sky can fully bear that sight,but downward bends his burning eye at mysteries so bright. Crown him the Lord of peace, whose power a scepter swaysfrom pole to pole, that wars may cease, absorbed in prayer and praise.His reign shall know no end; and round his pierced feetfair flowers of paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet.

*Benediction

*Benediction response “Hallelujah” from Messiah George Frideric HandelThe Sanctuary Choir Hallelujah! For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. Hallelujah! The kingdom of this world is become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever; King of kings and Lord of lords! Hallelujah!
