In the Gospel of John, Jesus appears to Mary in a garden beside the tomb where he was buried. Naturally, she reaches for him, but he holds her off, saying “Do not hold onto me.” (John 20:17) Why? That is our focus this Easter morning. Come join Jesus and Mary in the garden as we celebrate the risen Christ.

While Matthew, Mark, and Luke kick off Jesus’ ministry with the devil in the wilderness, John’s gospel starts him as a guest at a wedding reception with his mother. Mary wants her son to fix a hospitality problem for the newlyweds. Jesus resists. Mary pushes back. What does he choose to do and why?
