4/7/2024: After the Happily Ever After

It is the Sunday after Easter. We have heard the trumpets and alleluias. The lilies may be starting to wilt. Everything is back to “normal”. Or is it? We believe the Resurrection was just the beginning of God’s work bringing new life into the world. Now Christ is alive in us as a faith community, and every one is a part of that. Who are we as a people after the Easter event? What does it mean to live as resurrection people? We will consider the story in Acts 4 about the radical mutuality between people of the new Christian faith, and wonder about how our faith translates into our public life in the world. It is also communion Sunday, and we get to remember that the Last Supper too was just the beginning!
