Show Notes

Our Adult Formation Crail C series during the season of Eastertide is entitled Practicing Resurrection. Guest speakers who are writers and poets will invite us to think about resurrection, not just as the promise of heaven or eternal life, but also as a life-giving reality in the world today that turns things upside down for the sake of God’s love.

Dr. Mona West began the series by exploring Jesus’ post-resurrection appearance stories in the Gospels, as well as the poetry of Wendell Berry and Julia Esquivel as contexts for “practicing resurrection.”
