In this episode, we consider the readings for the second Sunday of Easter, Year A in the Lectionary cycle: Acts 2:1-14a, 22-32; Psalm 16; 1 Peter 1:3-9; John 20:19-31.

We discuss how Jesus is identifiable by His wounds and appears to Thomas so that he may believe, Peter's courageous faith and words of exhortation in Acts 2, and the way preaching and the accounts of Jesus are given to us, who haven't seen Him, in order that we may believe. The Lord is risen, friends!

Our outro music is an original song by our friend Dcn. Jeremiah Webster, a poet and professor whose giftedness is rivaled by his humbleness. You can find his published works, including After So Many Fires, with a quick Google.
