As part of our Kingdom Living series, Revd David Kleinhans preaches a thoughtful message titled Practicing Resurrection, reflecting on John 20:1–23.

Through Jesus’ words, “Peace be with you,” and his breathing of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples, we are reminded that the resurrection begins a new creation and calls us to participate in God’s work of restoration.

Drawing on voices such as N.T. Wright and Wendell Berry, David explores what it looks like to “practice resurrection” in the ordinary moments of life — through forgiveness, generosity, hospitality, peacemaking and love. Because resurrection people believe that nothing done in love is ever wasted.

What would it look like for us to live differently because Jesus is risen? Enjoy.
