Hope in Times of Fear : The Resurrection and the Meaning of Easter
Outline : Times are difficult. Disease, death, and the loss of a vision for a shared common good have shattered the idea of a bright and better future for everyone. How can we survive this moment together? HOPE.
The Resurrection accounts of Jesus in the Gospels hold the key to the hope we all need to face the desperation of daily life. HOPE IN TIMES OF FEAR examines the life-changing meaning of Jesus's resurrection. Easter reminds the world that Jesus was physically resurrected from the dead, and that we can be spiritually resurrected and reborn. This is because the resurrection of Christ brings the future power of God - that will someday heal and renew the entire world - into our lives now. Christians have a realistic and irrepressible hope. It is not a naive, utopian expectation of paradise today, but a hope for our lives and our society that we can participate in the fullness of paradise yet to come. The resurrection can shape every aspect of our lives - our inner emotional lives, our relationships, our pursuit of justice, and our attitudes toward history and even death itself. Timothy Keller considers this crucial message of the Christian faith with inspiring and bracing insight, and offers a new way to look at a story you think you know.
