You're Not Done After Easter - Rev. Dn. Shojil Abraham
from The Ladder Homilies
In this reflection on the season of the Resurrection, we are reminded that Pascha is not the end of the journey, but the beginning of a renewed life in Christ. Moving beyond the mindset that Easter concludes Lent, this homily calls us to embrace a deeper, ongoing repentance—one that takes on a new “flavor” marked by peace, generosity, courage, and love. Using the rich symbolism of the fish from the Gospel and early Christian tradition, we are invited to remain rooted in Christ, to keep moving forward in spiritual growth, and to resist the currents of distraction, comfort, and ego. Just as fish cannot survive outside of water, we cannot live apart from the life and peace of Christ. This message challenges us to carry the power of the empty tomb into our daily lives—bringing healing where there is division, hope where there is darkness, and Christ’s presence into every relationship. As we journey toward Pentecost, we are called to cultivate a heart that longs for the Holy Spirit by actively living out the Resurrection each day.
