The Apostle Thomas gets a bad rap for doubting the appearance of Jesus on Easter Sunday evening, when he wasn't there to witness it himself. Under the circumstances, I don't think Thomas acted much differently than most of us would have. After all, people don't come back to life, especially after they're killed as thoroughly and brutally as Jesus was. C'mon... people do NOT rise from the dead! I suggest we give Thomas a break after all these years.

Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! Join us as we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the true centerpiece of Christian faith. Find out where Easter fits into the big picture of God's plan and what it means for you and the world.

We waved palm branches as we sang Hosannas to Jesus as he rode into Jerusalem. The lesson reminds us that Jesus was a surprise, because he was not at all the kind of king the Jews were looking for and expecting. They wanted a king of military and political power to save them from the Romans. But instead, God sent a very different kind of king and savior.

It’s the 5th Sunday of Lent. The Lesson is about the Church’s mission, specifically your role and mine in building God’s new kingdom— a project that began when Jesus rose from the dead on Easter to completely conquer sin and death—so that as we pray, “God’s will be done on earth as in heaven.”
