This Sunday, the Fourth Sunday of Easter, we will finish our sermon series entitled, “Thy Kingdom Come: The Great Reversals of God’s Reign in Luke’s Gospel,” on the road to Emmaus.

The text we will explore together is Luke 24:13-32, where two disciples traveling down the Emmaus road are trying to make sense of the conflicting realities of cross and empty tomb. Jesus joins the burdened and bewildered disciples on the road, concealed in the flesh of a stranger. The story continues through the sharing of Word and Sacrament and culminates as the disciples eyes are opened and they recognize the stranger as Jesus.
