Still, I found Holy Week to be personally moving and I believe it was a growing experience for Eastgate. We stretched ourselves, doing many new things that I hope gave us a deeper appreciation for Christ's crucifixion, death, and resurrection and its meaning for all of us. As I tried to share in meditations and sermons, I found great, recurring examples of love throughout the tragic story.
If you missed one of the services, if you would like to listen to one of my sermons or meditations again, or if you'd like to share them with others, you can find audio links below:
- Maundy Thursday: "Last Supper: The Cursed Betrayal"
- Great Vigil of Easter: "Blessings of Light Overcoming the Curse of Darkness"
- Easter Sunday: "A Promise Kept: Redeemed from the Curse"
For the sermon, I'll be reflecting on Jacob's wrestling match with God and its aftermath in a special sermon entitled, "The Morning After (There's Got to Be a Morning After)." I'm looking forward to it, and I hope that it will be a special weekend for Eastgate.
