Preacher's Pondering
Our texts for this Easter Sunday April 20, 2025 are:
· Luke 24:1-12
· Isaiah 65:17-25
As we approach them together I want you to be ponder of a couple of things….
Luke text: While we get Luke’s Resurrection story this year, the Resurrection accts are in all 4 Gospels; Matthew 28:1-10, Mark 16:1-8, Luke 24:1-12 and John 20:1-8. I encourage you to read all of them and do a comparison of the difference in details. Each Gospel tells the story of the Resurrection from a different perspective. What most basic elements are present in each story?
Isaiah text: How might we understand the Resurrection event to be creating something new? Not just new for humanity but all of Creation?
Bring these thoughts with this Sunday. And feel free to email me with your thoughts (or questions) as well at [email protected] . I’d love to hear from you!
Peace,
Pastor Renee
