A highly and unlikely tale is on the lips of many people across the Western world while developing nations and third world countries are increasingly embracing this message of hope. Perhaps the most unlikely bit of the story is that the first at the scene were women, who were not regarded as reliable witnesses of the day. It seems also that the Church quietly removed women from the early accounts of the resurrection. It is the women who go and tell the men that Jesus has risen as foretold on the third day.<\/p>\n<p>Easter is not about the normal. Easter looks outward. Certainly the disciples were not expecting the resurrection. It was not part of the game plan, as they understood it. However it is the skeptic disciples who in fact claim he has risen. For many this fact that Jesus did rise from the dead and continues to be present in the world today remains a challenge, and in particular to those who want to run the world their way. It is an inconvenient truth for many. Large sums of money changed hands at the time to refute the claim as it does now.<\/p>\n<p>Easter day reminds us that there is more to life than status, money and power .It is an act of love by the divine creator of the world. In the darkest hour new life is proclaimed in the resurrection of Jesus. It is the victim of our brokenness that shines in the light of darkness to restore and bring hope to all.<\/p>\n<p>Please join us over this Easter season.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Easter to everyone<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Easter Message St George\u2019s East Ivanhoe.
