Our mission is to preserve New Church audio recordings and make them available to all. We provide audiobooks of works by Emanuel Swedenborg, recordings of New Church sermons, Swedenborgian classes, and more. These offer opportunities for Bible study and spiritual growth, exploring Biblical symbolism and New Church theology.
New Church Audio is a program of The New Church, an international Christian organization.
The New Church is a Christian denomination based on the Bible and the revelation given to Emanuel Swedenborg. We believe that true faith is loving the Lord Jesus Christ by following his teachings and being of service to others.
Description: In this sermon we celebrate the miracle of the Lord rising from the dead on the third day. We focus on a part of the Easter story that's not often paid attention to--the guards at the tomb. What forces within us try to keep the news of the Lord's resurrection from getting out? Were they successful in suppressing the story? What can we learn from this small part of the Easter story?
