Today is a celebration of the beginnings of all restoration. This blog post from Curt Harding captures this beautifully in light of the recent tornado destruction in Tennessee. Angels with Chainsaws (via http://curtharding.wordpress.com)

Christ is Risen!

What joy, this promise of redemption; what love, this sacrifice given;
What hope, all things made new; what now, but new life for me and you.

Today is the day when all life is promised restoration. The day where all lost hope is given new life. The moment when the forces of evil were put on notice… Your time is running out. May we now be the people of resurrection, the people through whom this new life flows, the people who stare down the powers of evil, the people who live lives declaring that even though there is evil around us there is hope, there is love, there is faith, there is redemption.

Amen.

It’s Friday.

Tony Campolo is a man whose life has been about expanding and advancing the Kingdom of Heaven into this world. He has challenged Christians in America to live out a faith that explains the Good News. Years ago he preached a message called, “It’s Friday, But Sunday’s Coming”. The words and challenges in the message continue to resonate with all of us today. May they challenge you to live a life beyond the darkness threatening to oppresses us and those around us. And may your words and actions declare to a hurting world that God is on a mission to restore and redeem us all.
