Incredible Moment with a Bent-over Woman

It feels weird to be posting about Jesus in the synagogue the day after Easter. That was then. This is now. He died, he rose, he's on his way to Galilee to cook fish... what's he doing back in the synagogue?

But the whole point of Gire's meditation was not lost on me: too often we stay stuck in a Good Friday world... where there is no room for miracles, or bold belief in the Good News of the resurrection. In this way we are all bent low to the ground, shuffling through our daily grind, hoping for, but not really believing in, a change of heart in ourselves or our fellow man. Oh that we really were resurrection Christians...

  • Well, you jarred me on that one. I have lost all but the last glimmer of hope that my fellow man will ever get off his butt and become part of the solution instead of part of the problem.

  • I think our preacher reminds us to really be "Easter people" every Sunday.... :)
