Easter

 

 

  • Easter Reflection by Harriett Jane Olson
    03/29/2013 How appropriate that one of the lectionary readings for today is Acts 10—Peter in the house of Cornelius.  This event is not a retelling of the Easter story itself. 
  • Resurrection Hope: Still Possible Today by Harriett Jane Olson
    04/08/2012 The story of Holy Week is a mix of conversations between the closest of companions and the “wide angle” pageantry of festival season in Jerusalem. What do we make of the story’s ending?
  • An Easter Reflection on Mary Magdalene by Harriett Olson
    04/05/2010 Mary Magdalene is in a unique position to observe the resurrection. Perhaps you can identify with Mary, a true boundary-breaker.
  • A Reflection on Easter by Harriett J. Olson
    04/07/2009 This is one day on which the cynics are wrong. The barrier of human death is revealed as vulnerable and the love of God shows through in glory and in humility.
  • Easter: Focused on the Facts, but Missing the Story? by Harriett Olson
    08/21/2008 The presence of the women in the Easter story continues to be a marvel and a wonder to me. Of course, Jesus the Christ has center stage in the narrative; nothing should compete with his role in the story, much less succeed in supplanting him.
