Christ is Risen! 4.4.21.

4.4.21. Christ is Risen! Christ is Risen indeed! We gather this Sunday to receive the best news of all: the tomb is empty and Christ is risen. In Mark’s gospel, however, the Risen One does not appear to the disciples. There is only a mysterious figure in the tomb, who tells the women that in order to see the risen Christ, they must go to Galilee. They must go back to the beginning, go back home. What should we make of this invitation to “go home” on Easter? What if home is not a place to which we want to go? Rev. David Lewicki, preaching.
