Walking with Jesus — Episode 8: Raising Lazarus

“Lazarus, come out!”

In Episode 8 of Walking with Jesus, we travel to Bethany and stand beside Jesus at the tomb of His friend Lazarus.

Mary and Martha are grieving. Lazarus has been dead for four days. Jesus seems to have arrived too late.

But Jesus is never powerless before a tomb.

In this deeply moving episode, we experience Martha’s heartbreaking words—“Lord, if you had been here…”—the tenderness of the moment when Jesus wept, and finally the astonishing command that changes everything: “Lazarus, come out!”

But this story is about more than a miracle 2,000 years ago.

What in your life have you given up on? What have you placed behind a stone and declared finished, hopeless, or beyond repair?

Bethany reminds us:

Never declare dead what Christ may still call back to life.

And there is an even deeper significance to this miracle. As Jesus gives Lazarus back his life, Jesus moves one step closer to surrendering His own.

The road now turns toward Jerusalem.
