Jesus, the resurrected one. (EASTER)

The resurrection is emphatic: Jesus is said to have bodily risen in time and space at a moment in history. The resurrection is neither mythical, nor metaphorical. It happened, and it changed the world forever.

To a world lost to wishy washy relativism, Jesus’ victory over death is the most sure absolute anyone can build a life on. And the resurrection is transformational. The victory of God means the end of fear and the end of any lack of purpose. Those who live in the light of resurrection are able not to be alarmed, and to go: go and live lives of meaning. And the resurrection is grace. It’s the gift of God to a world in need. Grace transforms everything.

Thank God for Easter.
