A newborn baby was found abandoned in Southwest Uganda and given a name that carries hope: Emmanuel—“God with us.” In this episode, that unforgettable moment becomes a lens for Easter. From Mary Magdalene hearing Jesus speak her name at the empty tomb (John 20:11–18) to a child’s story of rescue and reunion, we’re reminded that no one is overlooked by God. Easter declares that Jesus is alive, every child matters, and new life is possible—whether a heart feels broken, afraid, rejected, or stuck in despair. Because the risen Christ still calls people by name, and still brings life where it seems impossible.
