Homily
Friday in the Octave of Easter
17 April 2020
St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center at the University of Kansas
One surprise after another.
The Risen Christ is popping up anywhere and everywhere.
First in a garden.
Then on a road.
Next in the locked room.
Now at the Sea.
He's not mad the boys went back to fishing.
He told them to meet him where it all began.
For the resurrection is not an escape from real life.
It's moving from death to life right where we are.
Easter invites us to live our real life differently.
From the left side to the right.
From empty to full.
Right where we are.
