Recently N.T. Wright has made a great impact on myself and those in my church community. As we approach Easter I am realizing that the church as a whole has very little excitement or anticipation of what is the biggest event in the story. (At least in my experience) I believe this is because of a disjointed take on what actually happened that day, and on its significance.
Take a look at these videos and maybe even give Wright’s Surprised by Hope a try as we close in on Easter. Incredible.

On the Resurrection of Jesus…
On the Resurrection of the body…
On a new heavens and a new earth…
On people’s response to his thoughts on Heaven…
