The Absence of Jesus

What does resurrection mean to you? What does it mean for us to say that Jesus is raised from the dead?

We, like the women at the mouth of the tomb, are not witnesses to Christ’s resurrected body. Jesus is not, physically at least, ‘with’ us. Like the women, we simply know him through his absence. 

- Simon Woodman preaching on Easter day 2021, on Luke 24.1-12.
