RESURRECTION NOW!
A Liturgical and Devotional Guide for Easter
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 Resurrection Now! is for you.Â

Although it can sometimes feel like the demands of others, the restriction of our freedom that comes from living with others, and the constant struggle to maintain strong relationships with others are too painful and exhausting for what they cost us, the alternative, which is to isolate ourselves, is far worse. That’s why, as we explore the meaning of [...]
Easter 4A
30 April 2023 If we have become accustomed to think of resurrection life as something that we receive and enjoy primarily as individuals, this week's Lectionary readings will come as something of a shock. Through the interesting collage of metaphors - sheep and Shepherd, suffering and care, life and togetherness in the community of faith - we are drawn into recognising that the life Christ offers us is always shared.
