Being Gracefully Carried by the Lord
[Machine transcription] Christ is risen! Hallelujah! This morning’s text is the last that we’ll hear about Christ’s post-resurrection appearances.

A Real Touching Story
Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed! Alleluia! Grace, mercy, and peace to you from God our Father, and from our risen Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. The sermon text for this 3rd Sunday of Easter is from the Gospel according to St. Luke, Chapter 24. “If Christ is not raised, then I am a liar!” That’s pretty much what the apostle Paul writes in 1st Corinthians, chapter…
Faith on the Road to Emmaus
