What a question! The invitation from Jesus is to 'stop looking for life in dead places!' [come home and be healed] and to 'be those who expect life in places of death' [people of hope and resurrection]. Consider these words: come and be healed and empowered to show up to be a part of the resurrection work of Jesus with hope in hand!

Luke 24: 1-8, Luke 15, Ezekiel, 1 Kings 18

Questions to consider—
