    We say it, just like the 2 disciples on the way to Emmaus. Jesus 1) opens the conversation, 2) opens the Scriptures, and 3) opens our eyes. Jesus is alive, and our hope is alive!

    EASTER: “WE HAD HOPED…” --Luke 24:13-35 On a Sunday, about 2000 years ago, 2 disciples were walking down the road. It might have been 2 men, or a man and wife.
