Easter: "we Had Hoped..."

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Mar 27, 2020

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.

Easter: Do You Believe In The God Of Surprises?

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Apr 3, 2010

Do you believe in the God of surprises? I do - but there is no way the friends of Jesus expected him to rise from the dead. No way! But the Good News is that he did and it is Good News for all people. Do you believe in the God of surprises?

Do you believe in the God of surprises? Now, let’s be clear, just in case anyone’s not sure. Although The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is one of my favourite books, and one of my favourite films, I know that it’s only make-believe; but just like the parables that Jesus told – the stories he ...read more
