Sample Book Insights:
#1 Easter was when Hope in person surprised the whole world by coming forward from the future into the present. The ultimate future hope remains a surprise, because we don’t know when it will arrive and because at present we only have images and metaphors for it.
#2 Without Easter, the Christian faith would not exist. The movement that arose around Jesus would not have been about good news, but rather good advice. People were waiting for the great day to dawn, not celebrating its arrival.
#3 Christmas has now become the main celebratory event of the Christian year, while Easter has been pushed to the margins. Easter should be the center of the Christian year, but we rarely have enough energy left for it except for the first night and day.
#4 The challenge of new creation is the challenge of history and science as much as it is for the Christian or the theologian. Jesus’s resurrection isn’t an odd event within the world as it is but the utterly characteristic, prototypical, and foundational event within the world as it has begun to be.
