In a world that can feel loud, anxious, and divided, Easter arrives with a quiet but powerful word: peace.

This Easter, Rev Charissa Suli, President of the Uniting Church in Australia, offers a message drawn from the heart of the resurrection story — the moment the risen Jesus stood among his frightened disciples, showed them his wounds, and breathed new life into their fear.

It is a message for anyone carrying more than they show. For communities facing real pressures. For a world still searching for hope that doesn't flinch from the hard things.

Resurrection is not denial. It is love moving through scars. And that peace — the peace of the risen Christ — does not stay behind locked doors. It moves outward. It sends us.

Watch Rev Suli's Easter message below, and be reminded of what we are called to live by this season and always.

Christ is risen. He is risen indeed.

The message was filmed by creative production agency Cadence Media on the lands of the Pambalong clan of the Awabakal nation Caves Beach, NSW.
