Easter Quote
“The question of Jesus’ resurrection, though it may in some senses burst the bounds of history, also remains within them; that is precisely why it is so important, so disturbing, so life-and-death. We could cope–the world could cope–with a Jesus who ultimately remains a wonderful idea inside his disciples’ minds and hearts. The world cannot cope with a Jesus who comes out of the tomb, who inaugurates God’s new creation right in the middle of the old one.”
–N. T. Wright, Surprised by Hope
