Special Edition: Easter 2026: Death and Darkness, Get You Packing

from What in the Word? · host Miriam Fisher

In this episode, we take our first look at a 17th‑century Easter hymn by Henry Vaughan that commands "Death and darkness, get you packing." We look at the poem's meaning, physical and spiritual death, Jesus as the light of the world, and how the resurrection removes the fear of judgment for believers.   As promised in the podcast, here's a link to the study on sunlight wave lengths.
