Hear these words as we begin to worship after the events of Holy Week, the disciples are devastated. They are in the midst of full blown grief and disbelief… In the heart of that grief came a stunning revelation. Life had overcome death. Love had won out over violence. God’s faithfulness would build them up once again. God’s love will bind them together. Is this possible in our lives? Today’s worship will say yes it can, come and see. Live and love! This is the heart of the matter! Christ is Risen! Let the people say: “Christ is Risen INDEED! CHRIST IS RISEN INDEED!!”
