Jesus assures his disciples that he is a human being, not a ghost. He was the same Jesus they had known before. Jesus also invites us to share in his risen life. He assures us that it’s all for real.

The Emmaus narrative is replicated in the life of believers. Jesus walks with us and allows us to tell him our story. Do our hearts burn within us as we walk with Jesus?

The life of every believer involves looking for Jesus. Deep in our hearts we know that we can never be happy, never fulfilled unless we are with him.

We are all called to respond to the resurrection of Jesus. We either accept the wonderful thing that has happened or we write it off as a fraud of some sort.

Through a series of readings from Scripture at the Easter Vigil service, we review the execution of God’s plan of salvation that started with creation and evolved in the context of the history of God’s own people–a history that included liberation from slavery and a land of promise.

Jesus died in the midst of sinners, comforted by only a few people who respected him. What part would I have played in the drama of Jesus’ death?
