Run to the Empty Tomb

Easter is more than a tradition.
It is the most important event in history.
But what actually happened during that final week?
Why did Jesus have to die?
Was the resurrection real?
And what does it mean for us today?
In Run to the Empty Tomb: A Journey from the Cross to Resurrection Hope, Pastor John E. Miller guides readers step-by-step through the final week of Jesus' earthly ministry - from Palm Sunday to Resurrection Sunday - in a powerful narrative devotional format that brings Scripture to life.
This book is written for anyone who wants to understand Easter more clearly.
It is for:
• Individual readers seeking deeper faith
• Laypeople wanting stronger biblical understanding
• Seekers exploring what Christians believe
• Families preparing their hearts for Easter
• Pastors and ministry leaders preparing their churches
The first section walks readers through a 20-chapter journey across Passion Week - including Gethsemane, Peter's denial, the cross, the silence of Saturday, and the discovery of the empty tomb.
But this Ministry Edition goes further.
The extensive appendices include:
• A chronological Passion Week timeline
• The Romans Road to salvation

Whether you are reading personally to understand the meaning of the cross and resurrection, or leading a church through Easter with clarity and confidence, Run to the Empty Tomb provides both spiritual depth and practical tools.
This is not just a devotional.
It is not just a sermon resource.
It is a complete Easter journey - for any reader and for every church.
The stone has been moved.
The tomb is empty.
And hope is alive.
Because He lives, you also will live.
