RESURRECTION NOW!
An Easter Journey
Do you know that voice?
It seems that we human beings have evolved a society that leaves so many of us surviving and existing, but not truly living. It is well-documented that many people today feel empty, unfulfilled, and robbed of meaningful life. Many voices rightly remind us that life is difficult, and that we all struggle, get hurt, and face frustration. But many of us know a persistent voice within us whispering that it doesn’t have to be like this; that life can be meaningful, fulfilling, and vibrant, even in the difficulties of being human in an imperfect world.
If you know that nagging sense that life could be more, if you seek a life that is deeper, richer, and more alive than our society’s version, then Sacredise’s Liturgical and Devotional Guide, Resurrection Now!, is for you.

Week of 23 – 29 August 2026
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK What do we mean when we speak of Jesus as Messiah and Saviour? There are so many meanings to these words that we need to be careful not to reduce them to only a small glimpse of the whole. One of the ways we reduce the power of these titles is when we make them all about escaping from this world and spending eternity somewhere else. Jesus does offer us forgiveness, freedom from the power of sin, and eternal life. But Jesus also offers us [...]

Proper 16A
23 August 2026 Following on from last week's theme, this week offers us a new encounter with God's salvation. "Salvation" is a word that is thrown around a lot in churches, and also in the work of evangelism. The readings this week encourage us to revisit this word, to delve deeper into its meaning and to live it out as a daily reality, rather than a future promise of evacuation. May we encounter salvation again as we worship this week, and may we become not just recipients but also [...]

An Extraordinary Execution
Why Jesus’ Death Matters Here and Now
Based on the readings from the Gospel of John for Year B in the Revised Common Lectionary, AN EXTRAORDINARY EXECUTION explores some of the primary ways that Jesus’ crucifixion has been understood through Christian history and how they can be reinterpreted and applied to our lives in the 21st Century. This is not just a theological discussion around the cross. It is a challenge to respond more deeply and intentionally to Jesus’ call for us to take up our crosses and follow him. And it is an invitation to build our lives around the liberating truths that are so powerfully proclaimed in Jesus’ death.

Unquenchable Hope
An Easter Journey through the Revelation
John, the writer of the Revelation, was in solitary confinement when he received and wrote his vision. He had every reason to give up, but instead, he called his companions in Christ to cling to hope. He reminded them of the meaning and power of Christ’s resurrection and encouraged them to keep working to make God’s reign a reality in their lives.
