RESURRECTION

Sunday, April 16, 2006

The Lord is risen! He is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

Resurrection is not just a word for today----Easter.

Resurrection is what gives meaning to life.

Hopefully even after today is over, we will continue to meditate, think, read and study about Christ, the cross and resurrection.

Let me suggest to you:

THE RESURRECTION OF THE SON OF GOD by N.T. Wright
Richard N. Ostling, Associated Press calls this, “The most monumental defense of the Easter heritage in decades…The Resurrection of the Son of God marches through a clearly organized case that confronts every major doubt about Easter, ancient and modern.”

THE MESSAGE OF THE RESURRECTION by Paul Beasley-Murray

ONCE UPON A TREE by Calvin Miller

THE CROSS OF CHRIST by John R.W. Stott

Resurrection is what I am thinking about today. I hope I will be thinking about it every day until this time next year when we say once again,” The Lord is risen! He is risen indeed! Hallelujah!”

“He is risen indeed!”
