Hope found in Easter


"Easter is so profound... No one could help noticing the ressurection: 'Spring is Christ,' Rumi said, 'martyred plants rising up from their shrouds.' Easter says that love is more powerful than death; bigger than the dark, bigger than cancer, bigger than any grim, bleak crud anyone can throw at us."

Christ Defeated Death Bodily


"The thing about Easter is that Jesus comes back from the dead both resurrected and broken, with the wounds from the nails still visible. People needed to see that it really did happen, the brutaility, the human death. He came back with a body - not like Casper or Topper; he didn't come back as the vague idea of a spirit returning. No, it was physical, a wounded body. He had lived, he had died; and then you could touch him, and he could eat; and these four things are as bodily as life gets."

It's Back!


The Farmer's Market has returned for the summer. I am excited about the opportunity to get fresh vegetables (and eggs).
