Easter (323)
  1. God has created perfectly. God is in the house and all is right with the world!
  2. Tomorrow Jesus will laugh his way out of the tomb, spit in the face of death, and kick the devil in the throat as he dances to the clapping glee of angelic masses. But today he just rests.
  3. Like the women who came despite their questions, your hearers will gather despite their uncertainties, and they will be looking for a word of honest hope.
  4. In the resurrection Jesus transcended time, space, and death; those things which limit human existence. So, the stone was not rolled away for Jesus, but for the disciples and for us.
  5. This is the feast, the banquet to end all banquets. The LORD God is the maker and provider of this great feast which takes place for the resurrected faithful in the courts of Heaven.
  6. For the God-man goes from borrowed donkey to borrowed upper room to borrowed cross and borrowed tomb. For you.
  7. There is joy in Lent, but it is the kind of joy that comes in being made whole.
  8. Resurrection is victory. God shall arise! Christ has risen! However, this is not the sum of the LORD’s provision for the people.
  9. Why is there a need to replace Judas? The reason revolves around the number twelve.
  10. This pericope is not merely for the anxious, the persecuted, and the humbled. It is also for the self-reliant, confident and accomplished because at one time or another, they too will be anxious, persecuted, and humbled.
  11. A wonderful intimacy, eternal and beyond our understanding, lies beneath the surface of these words. What is even more wonderful is how this intimacy is also ours. Through the saving work of Jesus, this intimacy is extended unto us.
  12. Jesus is not celebrating diversity or difference. He is promising sameness. Redundancy. A repeat of what has happened before.
