“The resurrection places Jesus on this side of the grave, here and now, in the midst of life. The Good News...is not that we shall die and go home with him but that he is risen and comes home with us, bringing all his hungry, naked, thirsty, sick, prisoner brothers with him.”
Thank you, I had not heard of Mr. Jordan before but have now added him to my ever growing reading list
