One For the Road
The Gospel of Luke introduces us to two new characters at nearly the end of the story, which is an odd choice, to be sure. Weirder still is the lengthy encounter they have with a stranger on their road back home, and how this stranger changes the course of their journey and ours. We might think we know how the story ends, but resurrection might just surprise us once again.

Let’s talk about what it feels like to “fish with empty nets,” and how resurrection can invite us into a posture of abundance.
