Practising Resurrection
This Easter message invites us to move beyond passive reflection into the active, transformative practice of resurrection in our daily lives. Reflecting on John 20, we’re reminded of the familiar yet powerful story of the empty tomb and Mary Magdalene’s encounter with the risen Jesus. But rather than settling for wonder alone, we’re challenged to consider what resurrection means for us now. How should we live in light of it? The answer lies in embodying the love Jesus showed — even from the cross — by redefining what it means to be family, opening our hearts and homes, and carrying one another’s burdens with humility, compassion, and joy. To “practice resurrection” means to live as if the new creation is already underway — because it is. It’s loving enemies, choosing mercy, holding on to hope in broken places, and living out the kingdom of God in the ordinary places we call home. As Jesus promised to meet his disciples in Galilee — the place they knew best — we are invited to meet him in our everyday lives, in familiar streets, with familiar people, living out a radical, resurrection-shaped love. This is where transformation happens: not just through belief, but through the daily, often costly discipline of choosing life, love, and new beginnings.
