    Jesus' encounter with his disciples on their journey to Emmaus is a beautiful example of the invitation into a deeper relationship with Christ. I brought this message before a Communion Service.

A Sunday School teacher had just finished telling her third graders about how Jesus was crucified and placed in a tomb with a great stone sealing the opening. Then, wanting to share the excitement of the resurrection, she asked: "And what do you think ...read more

    "This is a fresh approach to this remarkable encounter between a brother trying to get in a place where Jesus is telling him to quickly get away from!"

    In the Gospel of John, there is perhaps one of the most interesting miracles to have ever taken place in the holy writ.
