Today is the Second Sunday of Easter. Yes, much like Christmas in the church tradition is more than one day. Easter is a celebration that carries us into Pentecost. Robert Webber says, “Easter is a time to call the church back to its roots,” and I believe this call is just as relevant today.
Traditionally, the Second Sunday of Easter focuses on the story of Thomas and his unbelief. We might know this as the story of “Doubting Thomas,” but that might not be a proper name for this follower of Jesus. In my opinion, he probably wasn’t any less inclined to believe Jesus had risen as the rest of the disciples; he just happened to not be in the room when Jesus appeared.
