John Kavanaugh, SJ
Divisions have wounded the church and injured our witness in faith. The passion for being right has served the cause of ego at least as much as it has served the cause of Christ.
John J. Pilch
Why do the resurrection appearances receive such diverse interpretations in the Gospels?
As always, Christ had to be patient with Thomas when he said he would not believe and with the other disciples too when they thought they were seeing a ghost.
Dennis
Hamm, SJ
All who believed were together and had all things in common; they would sell their property and possessions and divide them among all according to each one’s need.
Reginald H. Fuller
Even the disciples had to make the leap of faith when they saw
him. It is therefore possible for those who have not seen him to
make that same leap.
