Reframing Easter
“Jesus died and rose again to save us from our sins.” It’s a statement around which the Easter weekend often circles, but what does it mean? Perhaps Easter is not simply about how we secure our ticket on the train to heaven when we die, but there is something deeper going on inside the story that has to do with the disruption of power, ego, and control, and pushes us to reimagine love, humanness, the cosmos and our images of the divine. A story that has something to say to all of us, regardless of our affiliations, beliefs and ideologies.
