Peter’s Journey and Ours: Seeing, Believing, Following

Peter’s Journey and Ours: Seeing, Believing, Following Today the Church celebrates Easter . . . . . . as the central feast of Christianity, highlighting the Resurrection of Jesus Christ as the foundation of faith. Today’s Gospel explains how the Resurrection gives believers new spiritual vision, reveals the truth of life beyond death, and confirms the truth of Jesus’ teachings. The Homily emphasizes transformation, particularly using Peter’s journey from denial to bold witness. A parable about a caged snake illustrates the idea that while evil has been defeated through Christ, it still poses a threat if people seek it out. Ultimately, the Homily calls for followers to embrace the path Jesus laid out and let the power of the Resurrection shape their lives. Listen to this Meditation Meda. Listen to: Peter’s Journey and Ours: Seeing, Believing, Following ---------------------------------------------- Image: The Disciples Peter and John Running to the Sepulchre on the Morning of the Resurrection: Swiss Painter: Eugène Burnand: 1898 This painting is also known by its shorten name, The Disciples. Now residing in Paris, it was not well received when it was first presented. But look at the painting again. It is truly remarkable! Look at the hands of the younger disciple in anticipation. He holds his hands together anxiously. Look at Peter’s expression. He looks both terrified and hopeful. The artist captures the emotion and the movement of the disciples. How truly wonderful and appropriate for this Meditation piece. ---------------------------------------------- Gospel Reading: John 20: 1-9
