As Jesus passed through the beautiful landscape of Galilee, how could he not have enjoyed the flowers and the trees, and seen the Father’s hand in nature?

Dying and rising should be happening all the time for us. And in us. It’s a way for us to participate in the beautiful mystery of the Resurrection, during the Easter season, and every day.

Part of embracing resurrection and new life is embracing it not only in Jesus, not only in yourself, but in those around you.

God is continually inviting us to growth and continually enabling us to let some things in our life die so that we can experience new life.

The problem is not the priesthood; the problem is clericalism.

To live out the Resurrection we have to first truly believe in Jesus’s resurrection.

The church, in its wisdom, gives us a whole liturgical season to celebrate Easter.

God is being revealed to us every moment of the day. And so all these moments should make us say what Thomas says to Jesus, when we realize who it is who is speaking to us: “My Lord and My God!”

I believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead on the first Easter Sunday. And I do not see that as any sort of parable or metaphor.

All journalists should be humble because we are so often wrong.
